NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of PrivateBancorp, Inc. (“PrivateBancorp” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include certain information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year or any other period.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we have considered the impact of events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2012 for potential recognition or disclosure.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Transfers and Servicing – On January 1, 2012, we adopted amendments to accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) relating to the effective control assessment for repurchase agreements that in part determines whether a transaction is accounted for as a sale or a secured borrowing. The amendments remove from the assessment of effective control: (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position and consolidated results of operations.

Fair Value Measurement – On January 1, 2012, we adopted amendments to accounting guidance issued by the FASB relating to fair value measurements. The amendments substantially converge the principles for measuring fair value and the requirements for related disclosures under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments include clarifications and new guidance related to the highest and best use and valuation premise, measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in shareholders’ equity, measuring the fair value of financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio, and applying block discounts and other premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement. Additionally, the amendments require additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position and consolidated results of operations. Refer to Note 16 for the expanded disclosure requirements.

Statement of Comprehensive Income – On January 1, 2012, we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the FASB relating to the presentation of the statement of comprehensive income. This guidance provides the Company the option of presenting net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments do not change what items are reported in other comprehensive income. The new guidance did not impact our financial position and consolidated results of operations. The Company elected to present net income and other comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements. Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, which follow the Consolidated Statements of Income, for the new presentation requirements.

Testing Goodwill for Impairment – On January 1, 2012, we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the FASB that permits the Company to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value before applying the existing quantitative two-step goodwill impairment test to determine whether the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value and the amount of any goodwill impairment. Under the new guidance, the Company may forego the two-step test and conclude that goodwill is not impaired based on the results of the qualitative assessment. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position and consolidated results of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption

Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities – On December 16, 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to enhance current disclosure requirements on offsetting financial assets and liabilities. The new disclosure requirements are limited to recognized financial instruments subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. At a minimum, the Company will be required to disclose the following information separately for financial assets and liabilities: (a) the gross amounts of recognized financial assets and liabilities, (b) the amounts offset under current U.S. GAAP, (c) the net amounts presented in the balance sheet, (d) the amounts subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement that were not included in (b), and (e) the difference between (c) and (d). The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and must be retrospectively applied. As this guidance affects only our disclosures, the adoption of this guidance will not impact our financial position and consolidated results of operations.

Table of Contents

Non-marketable equity investments primarily consist of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock and represent amounts required to be invested in the common stock of the FHLB as a result of our membership in, and borrowings from, the FHLB. This equity security is “restricted” in that it can only be sold to the FHLB or another member institution at par. Therefore, it is less liquid than other equity securities. The fair value is estimated to be cost, and no other-than-temporary impairments have been recorded on this security during 2012 and 2011 with such impairment assessment based on the expectation that the investment would ultimately be recovered at par. Other non-marketable equity investments include certain interests we have in investment funds that make qualifying investments for purposes of supporting our community reinvestment initiatives (“CRA investments”).

The carrying value of securities pledged to secure public deposits, FHLB advances, trust deposits, Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) discount window borrowings, derivative transactions, standby letters of credit with counterparty banks and for other purposes as permitted or required by law, totaled $498.9 million at June 30, 2012 and $514.6 million at December 31, 2011.

Excluding securities issued or backed by the U.S. Government and its agencies and U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises, there were no investments in securities from one issuer that exceeded 10% of consolidated equity at June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

The following table presents the fair values of securities with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The securities presented are grouped according to the time periods during which the securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.

There were $1.5 million of securities with $15,000 in an unrealized loss position for greater than 12 months at June 30, 2012 and none at December 31, 2011. This unrealized loss was caused primarily by changes in interest rates and spreads. We do not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity. Accordingly, we do not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2012.

Impaired Loans

Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual loans (which include nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”)) and loans classified as accruing TDRs. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company has adopted an internal risk rating policy in which each loan is rated for credit quality with a numerical rating of 1 through 8. Loans rated 5 and better (1-5 ratings, inclusive) are credits that exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, and leverage. We attempt to mitigate risk by structure, collateral, monitoring, or other meaningful controls. Credits rated 6 are performing in accordance with contractual terms but are considered special mention as these credits demonstrate potential weakness that if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position and the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity or other credit concerns. Loans rated 7 may be classified as either accruing (“potential problem”) or nonaccrual (“nonperforming”). Potential problem loans, like special mention, are also loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. The ultimate collection of these potential problem loans is subject to some uncertainty due to the same conditions that characterize a 6-rated credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if left unresolved. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans and require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans risk rated 7 or 8 and have all the weaknesses inherent in a 7-rated potential problem loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently-existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Special mention, potential problem and nonperforming loans are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis, while all other rated credits over a certain dollar threshold, depending on loan type, are reviewed annually or as the situation warrants.

At the time an accruing loan becomes modified and meets the definition of a TDR, it is considered impaired and no longer included as part of the general loan loss reserve determination. However, our general reserve methodology considers the amount and characteristics of the TDRs removed as one of many credit or portfolio considerations in establishing final reserve requirements.

 

20


Table of Contents

As impaired loans, TDRs (both accruing and nonaccruing) are specifically evaluated for impairment at the end of each quarter with a specific valuation reserve created, if necessary, as a component of the allowance for loan losses. Refer to the “Impaired Loan” and “Allowance for Loan Loss” sections of Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding our policy for assessing potential impairment on such loans. Our allowance for loan losses included $27.5 million and $25.7 million in specific reserves for nonaccrual TDRs at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. At June 30, 2012, there was $47,000 in specific reserves for accruing TDRs. There were no specific reserves for accruing TDRs at December 31, 2011.

The following table presents the recorded investment and number of loans modified as an accruing TDR during the previous 12 months which subsequently became nonperforming during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. A loan becomes nonperforming and placed on nonaccrual status typically when the principal or interest payments are 90 days past due based on contractual terms or when an individual analysis of a borrower’s creditworthiness indicates a loan should be placed on nonaccrual status earlier than when the loan becomes 90 days past due.

(1) 

Excludes purchased impaired loans which are accounted for on a pool basis based on common risk characteristics as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows. Because we are recognizing interest income on each pool of loans, all purchased impaired loans are considered to be performing.

At the date of purchase, all purchased loans and the related indemnification asset were recorded at fair value. On an ongoing basis, the accounting for purchased loans and the related indemnification asset follows applicable authoritative accounting guidance for purchased nonimpaired loans and purchased impaired loans. The amounts we ultimately realize on these loans and the related indemnification asset could differ materially from the carrying value reflected in these financial statements, based upon the timing and amount of collections on the acquired loans in future periods compared to what is assumed in our current assessment of fair value. Our losses on loans and foreclosed real estate may be mitigated to the extent covered under the specific terms and provisions of our loss share agreement with the FDIC.

The allowance for covered loan losses is determined in a manner consistent with our policy for the originated loan portfolio.

   $ 94,546       $ 94,571   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Goodwill is not amortized but, instead, is subject to impairment tests at least on an annual basis or more often if events or circumstances occur that would indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. Our annual goodwill test was performed as of October 31, 2011, and it was determined that no impairment existed as of that date.

There were no impairment charges for goodwill recorded in 2011. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would result in goodwill impairment as of June 30, 2012.

Goodwill decreased by $25,000 during the first six months of 2012 due to an adjustment for tax benefits associated with the goodwill attributable to Lodestar Investment Counsel, LLC (“Lodestar”), an investment management firm and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

We have other intangible assets capitalized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in the form of core deposit premiums and client relationships. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 7 years to 15 years. We review intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During second quarter 2012, there were no events or circumstances to indicate there may be impairment of intangible assets, and no impairment charges for other intangible assets were recorded in 2011.

These instruments would continue to qualify as Tier II capital under the proposal.

(b) 

Effective in the third quarter 2010, Tier II capital qualification was reduced by 20% of the total balance outstanding and annually thereafter is reduced by an additional 20%. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, 60% of the balance qualified as Tier II capital for regulatory capital purposes.

We have $244.8 million in junior subordinated debentures issued to four separate wholly-owned trusts for the purpose of issuing Company-obligated mandatorily redeemable trust preferred securities. Refer to Note 10 for further information on the nature and terms of these and previously issued debentures.

FHLB long-term advances have fixed interest rates and were secured by residential mortgage-backed securities.

The Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, The PrivateBank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) has $120.0 million outstanding under a 7-year subordinated debt facility due September 2015. The debt facility has a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus 3.50%, per annum, payable quarterly and re-prices quarterly. The debt may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty and is subordinate to any future senior indebtedness.

We reclassify long-term debt to short-term borrowings when the remaining maturity becomes less than one year.

10. JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES HELD BY TRUSTS THAT ISSUED GUARANTEED CAPITAL DEBT SECURITIES

As of June 30, 2012, we sponsored and wholly owned 100% of the common equity of four trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing Company obligated mandatorily redeemable trust preferred securities (“Trust Preferred Securities”) to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities solely in a series of junior subordinated debentures of the Company (“Debentures”). The Debentures held by the trusts, which in aggregate total $244.8 million, are the sole assets of each respective trust. Our obligations under the Debentures and related documents, taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the obligations of the trusts. The guarantee covers the distributions and payments on the Trust Preferred Securities including on liquidation or redemption of the Trust Preferred Securities, but only to the extent of funds held by the respective trust. We have the right to redeem the Debentures held by PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust IV (the “Series IV Debentures”) in whole or in part, on or after June 13, 2013, subject to certain considerations. We may also have the right to redeem the Series IV Debentures prior to June 13, 2013, if future legislative or regulatory changes impact our capital treatment of the related Trust Preferred Securities. We currently have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, all the other Debentures, in each case at a redemption price specified in the indentures plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date. The repayment, redemption or repurchase of the Debentures would result in a corresponding repayment, redemption or repurchase of the related series of Trust Preferred Securities.

In connection with the issuance in 2008 of the Series IV Debentures, which rank junior to the other Debentures, we entered into a replacement capital covenant that relates to redemption of the Series IV Debentures and the related Trust Preferred Securities. Under the replacement capital covenant, we committed, for the benefit of certain debt holders, that we would not repay, redeem or repurchase the Series IV Debentures or the related Trust Preferred Securities prior to June 2048 unless we have (1) obtained regulatory approval, and (2) raised certain amounts of qualifying equity or equity-like replacement capital within the 180 day period prior to the date of repayment, redemption or repurchase. The replacement capital covenant benefits holders of our “covered debt” as specified under the terms of the replacement capital covenant. Currently, under the replacement capital covenant, the “covered debt” is the Debentures held by PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust II. We may amend or terminate the replacement capital covenant in certain circumstances without the consent of the holders of the covered debt.

Under current accounting rules, the trusts qualify as variable interest entities for which we are not the primary beneficiary and therefore ineligible for consolidation. Accordingly, the trusts are not consolidated in our financial statements. The subordinated Debentures issued by us to the trusts are included in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as “long-term debt” with the corresponding interest distributions recorded as interest expense. The common shares issued by the trusts are included in other assets in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition with the related dividend distributions recorded in other non-interest income.

(1) 

The trust preferred securities accrue distributions at a rate equal to the interest rate on and have a maturity identical to that of the related Debentures. The trust preferred securities will be redeemed upon maturity of the related Debentures.

 

(2) 

Reflects the coupon rate in effect at June 30, 2012. The coupon rate for the Bloomfield Hills Statutory Trust I is a variable rate and is based on six-month LIBOR plus 2.65%. The coupon rates for the PrivateBancorp Statutory Trusts II and III are at a variable rate based on six-month LIBOR plus 1.71% for Trust II and six-month LIBOR plus 1.50% for Trust III. The coupon rate for the PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust IV is fixed. Distributions for all of the Trusts are payable quarterly. We have the right to defer payment of interest on the Debentures at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding ten years in the case of the Debentures held by Trust IV, and five years in the case of all other Debentures, without causing an event of default under the related indenture, provided no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the Debentures. During such extension period, distributions on the trust preferred securities would also be deferred, and our ability to pay dividends on our common stock would be restricted. The Federal Reserve has the ability to prevent interest payments on the Debentures.

 

(3) 

The trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the Debentures at maturity or their earlier redemption. Subject to restrictions relating to our participation in the TARP CPP, the Debentures are redeemable in whole or in part prior to maturity at any time after the dates shown in the table, and in the case of Trust IV earlier at our discretion if certain events occur. It is anticipated that adoption of currently proposed capital rules would constitute a capital treatment event that would allow us to redeem early if certain conditions are satisfied, including those set forth in the replacement capital covenant to the extent then applicable. In addition, in any event, we may redeem only after we have obtained Federal Reserve approval, if then required under applicable guidelines or regulations.

Participating stockholders are those that hold unvested shares or units that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. Such shares or units are considered participating securities (i.e., the Company’s deferred stock units and nonvested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, excluding certain awards with forfeitable rights to dividends).

 

(2) 

Earnings allocated to common stockholders for basic and diluted earnings per share may differ under the two-class method as a result of adding common stock equivalents for options and warrants to dilutive shares outstanding, which alters the ratio used to allocate earnings to common stockholders and participating securities for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share.

The following table presents outstanding non-participating securities that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because their inclusion would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

Deferred Tax Assets

Net deferred tax assets totaled $97.0 million at June 30, 2012 and $106.3 million at December 31, 2011. Net deferred tax assets are included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

At June 30, 2012, we concluded that it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets will be realized and no valuation allowance was recorded. In making this determination, we relied in part on the fact that we were not in a cumulative book loss position for financial statement purposes, measured on a trailing three-year basis. In addition, we considered our recent earnings history, on both a book and tax basis, and our outlook for earnings in future periods. Our expectation of pre-tax book earnings in future periods should give rise to taxable income levels (exclusive of reversing temporary differences) that more likely than not will be sufficient to absorb the deferred tax assets.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $122,000 and $454,000 respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions that would favorably affect the effective tax rate, if recognized in future periods.

14. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

We utilize an overall risk management strategy that incorporates the use of derivative instruments to reduce interest rate risk, as it relates to mortgage loan commitments and planned sales, and foreign currency volatility. We also use these instruments to accommodate our clients as we provide them with risk management solutions. Additionally, we hold warrants received from borrowers in connection with loan restructurings that are accounted for as derivatives. None of the above-mentioned end-user and client-related derivatives were designated as hedging instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

We also use interest rate derivatives to hedge interest rate risk in our loan portfolio which is comprised primarily of floating rate loans. These derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges.

Derivatives expose us to counterparty credit risk. Credit risk is managed through our standard underwriting process. Actual exposures are monitored against various types of credit limits established to contain risk within parameters. Additionally, credit risk is managed through the use of collateral and netting agreements.

Capital markets group asset and liability derivatives are reported separately on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Certain of our derivative contracts contain embedded credit risk contingent features that if triggered either allow the derivative counterparty to terminate the derivative or require additional collateral. These contingent features are triggered if we do not meet specified financial performance indicators such as minimum capital ratios under the federal banking agencies’ guidelines. All requirements were met on June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Derivatives Designated in Hedge Relationships

The objective of our hedging program is to use interest rate derivatives to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.

Cash flow hedges –In the third quarter 2011, we began a cash flow hedging program by entering into receive fixed/pay variable interest rate swaps to convert certain floating-rate commercial loans to fixed rate to reduce the variability in forecasted interest cash flows due to market interest rate changes. We use regression analysis to assess the effectiveness of cash flow hedges at both the inception of the hedge relationship and on an ongoing basis. Ineffectiveness is generally measured as the amount by which the cumulative change in fair value of the hedging instrument exceeds the present value of the cumulative change in the expected cash flows of the hedged item. Measured ineffectiveness is recognized directly in other non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The effective portion of the gains or losses on cash flow hedges are recorded, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and are subsequently reclassified to interest income on loans in the period that the hedged interest cash flows affect earnings. As of June 30, 2012, the maximum length of time over which forecasted interest cash flows are hedged is six years. There are no components of derivative gains or losses excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness related to our cash flow hedge strategy.

As of June 30, 2012, $1.8 million in net deferred gains, net of tax, recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges subsequent to June 30, 2012.

During the first six months of 2012, there were no gains or losses from cash flow hedge derivatives related to ineffectiveness that were reclassified to current earnings. We are required to reclassify such gains or losses related to ineffectiveness in circumstances where the original forecasted transaction was no longer probable of occurring.

Derivatives Not Designated in Hedge Relationships

End-User Derivatives – We enter into derivatives that include commitments to fund certain mortgage loans to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans. It is our practice to enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans when customer interest rate lock commitments are entered into to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates on our commitments to fund the loans as well as on our portfolio of mortgage loans held-for-sale which totaled $35.3 million at June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2012, we had approximately $160.6 million of interest rate lock commitments and $195.9 million of forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans with rate locks at rates consistent with the lock commitment.

We are also exposed at times to foreign exchange risk as a result of issuing loans in which the principal and interest are settled in a currency other than U.S. dollars. Currently our exposure is to the Euro on $352,000 of loans and we manage this risk by using currency forward derivatives.

We also hold warrants received from one borrower in connection with a loan restructuring that are accounted for as derivative assets. At June 30, 2012, the fair value of these warrants was $19,000.

Client Related Derivatives – We offer, through our capital markets group, over-the-counter interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives to our clients, including but not limited to, interest rate swaps, options on interest rate swaps, interest rate options (also referred to as caps, floors, collars, etc.), foreign exchange forwards, and options as well as cash products such as foreign exchange spot transactions. When our clients enter into an interest rate or foreign exchange derivative transaction with us, we mitigate our exposure to market risk through the execution of off-setting positions with inter-bank dealer counterparties. Although the off-setting nature of transactions originated by our capital markets group limit our market risk exposure, they do expose us to other risks including counterparty credit, settlement, and operational risk.

To accommodate our loan clients, we occasionally enter into risk participation agreements (“RPA”) with counterparty banks to either accept or transfer a portion of the credit risk related to their interest rate derivatives. This allows clients to execute an interest rate derivative with one bank while allowing for distribution of the credit risk among participating members. We have entered into written RPAs in which we accept a portion of the credit risk associated with a loan client’s interest rate derivative in exchange for a fee. We manage this credit risk through our loan underwriting process, and when appropriate, the RPA is backed by collateral provided by our clients under their loan agreement.

The current payment/performance risk of written RPAs is assessed using internal risk ratings which range from 1 to 8 with the latter representing the highest credit risk. The risk rating is based on several factors including the financial condition of the RPA’s underlying derivative counterparty, present economic conditions, performance trends, leverage, and liquidity.

The maximum potential amount of future undiscounted payments that we could be required to make under our written RPAs assumes that the underlying derivative counterparty defaults and that the floating interest rate index of the underlying derivative remains at zero percent. In the event that we would have to pay out any amounts under our RPAs, we will seek to maximize the recovery of these amounts from assets that our clients pledged as collateral for the derivative and the related loan.

15. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Credit Extension Commitments and Guarantees

In the normal course of business, we enter into a variety of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of our clients and to conduct lending activities. These instruments principally include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and variable interest rates tied to the prime rate or LIBOR and may require payment of a fee for the unused portion or for the amounts issued but not drawn on letters of credit. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the borrowers. As of June 30, 2012, we had a reserve for unfunded commitments of $8.2 million, which reflects our estimate of inherent losses associated with these commitment obligations. The balance of this reserve changes based on a number of factors including: the balance of outstanding commitments and our assessment of the likelihood of borrowers to utilize these commitments. The reserve is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Table of Contents

Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a client to a third-party. Standby letters of credit include performance and financial guarantees for clients in connection with contracts between our clients and third parties. Standby letters of credit are agreements where we are obligated to make payment to a third-party on behalf of a client in the event the client fails to meet their contractual obligations. Commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being drawn on when the underlying transaction is consummated between the client and third-party.

In the event of a client’s nonperformance, our credit loss exposure is equal to the contractual amount of those commitments. We manage this credit risk in a similar manner to evaluating credit risk in extending loans to clients under our credit policies. We use the same credit policies in making credit commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments, mitigating exposure to credit loss through various collateral requirements, if deemed necessary. In the event of nonperformance by the clients, we have rights to the underlying collateral, which could include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and marketable securities.

The maximum potential future payments guaranteed by us under standby letters of credit arrangements are equal to the contractual amount of the commitment. The unamortized fees associated with standby letters of credit, which are included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, totaled $760,000 as of June 30, 2012. We amortize these amounts into income over the commitment period. As of June 30, 2012, standby letters of credit had a remaining weighted-average term of approximately 14 months, with remaining actual lives ranging from less than 1 year to 19 years.

Other Commitments

The Company has unfunded commitments to investment funds that make qualifying investments for purposes of our compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) as well as commitments to provide contributions to other investment partnerships totaling $3.7 million at June 30, 2012. Of these commitments, $527,000 related to legally binding unfunded commitments for tax-credit investments and was included within non-marketable equity investments and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Credit Card Settlement Guarantees

Our third-party corporate credit card vendor issues corporate purchase credit cards on behalf of our commercial clients. The corporate purchase credit cards are issued to employees of certain of our commercial clients at the client’s direction and used for payment of business-related expenses. In most circumstances, these cards will be underwritten by our third-party vendor. However, in certain circumstances, we may enter into a recourse agreement, which transfers the credit risk from the third-party vendor to us in the event that the client fails to meet its financial payment obligation. In these circumstances, a total maximum exposure amount is established for our corporate client. In addition to the obligations presented in the prior table, the maximum potential future payments guaranteed by us under this third-party settlement guarantee were $3.8 million at June 30, 2012.

We believe that the estimated amounts of maximum potential future payments are not representative of our actual potential loss given our insignificant historical losses from this third-party settlement guarantee program. As of June 30, 2012, we have not recorded any contingent liability in the consolidated financial statements for this settlement guarantee program, and management believes that the probability of any payments under this arrangement is remote.

Mortgage Loans Sold with Recourse

Certain mortgage loans sold have limited recourse provisions. The losses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011 arising from limited recourse provisions were not material. Based on this experience, the Company has not established any liability for potential future payments relating to mortgage loans sold in prior periods.

Legal Proceedings

As of June 30, 2012, there were various legal proceedings pending against the Company and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these proceedings will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

16. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We measure, monitor, and disclose certain of our assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis to account for securities available-for-sale, mortgage loans held-for-sale, derivative assets, derivative liabilities, and certain other assets and other liabilities. In addition, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to apply lower-of-cost-or-market accounting to foreclosed real estate and certain other loans held-for-sale, evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment, including collateral-dependent impaired loans, and for disclosure purposes. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, we use various valuation techniques and input assumptions when estimating fair value.

U.S. GAAP requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels based on the reliability of the input assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to level 1 measurements and the lowest priority to level 3 measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

 

   

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar instruments; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

   

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The categorization of where an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Valuation Methodology

We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. However, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value. Additionally, the methods used may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.

The following describes the valuation methodologies we use for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, including the general classification of the assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Securities Available-for-Sale – Securities available-for-sale include U.S. Treasury, collateralized mortgage obligations, residential mortgage-backed securities, state and municipal securities, and foreign sovereign debt. Substantially all available-for-sale securities are fixed income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange, but may be traded in active markets. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. The principal markets for our securities portfolio are the secondary institutional markets, with an exit price that is predominantly reflective of bid level pricing in those markets. U.S. Treasury securities have been classified in level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. All other remaining securities are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses a variety of methods to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from external pricing services, including evaluating pricing service inputs and methodologies, using exception reports based on analytical criteria, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on the Company’s knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. While our validation procedures may result in the use of a price obtained from our primary pricing source or our secondary pricing source, we have not altered the fair values obtained from the external pricing services.

Mortgage Loans Held-for-Sale – Mortgage loans held-for-sale represent mortgage loan originations intended to be sold in the secondary market. We have elected the fair value option for mortgage loans originated with the intention of selling to a third party bank. The election of the fair value option aligns the accounting for these loans with the related mortgage banking derivatives used to economically hedge them. These mortgage loans are measured at fair value as of each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized through mortgage banking non-interest income. The fair value of mortgage loans held-for-sale is determined based on prices obtained for loans with similar characteristics from third party sources. On a quarterly basis, the Company validates the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from third party sources by comparing prices obtained to prices received from various other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on Company knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. Mortgage loans held-for-sale are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans – We do not record loans held for investment at fair value on a recurring basis. However, periodically, we record nonrecurring adjustments to reduce the carrying value of certain impaired loans based on fair value measurement. This population of impaired loans includes those for which repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. We measure the fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans based on the fair value of the collateral securing these loans. A majority of collateral-dependent impaired loans are secured by real estate with the fair value generally determined based upon appraisals performed by a certified or licensed appraiser using a combination of valuation techniques such as sales comparison, income capitalization and cost approach and include inputs such as absorption rates, capitalization rates and comparables. We also consider other factors or recent developments that could result in adjustments to the collateral value estimates indicated in the appraisals. Accordingly, fair value estimates for collateral-dependent impaired loans are classified in level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. The carrying value of all impaired loans and the related specific reserves are disclosed in Note 4.

When collateral-dependent loans are determined to be impaired, updated appraisals for loans in excess of $500,000 are typically obtained every twelve months and evaluated internally by our appraisal department at least every six months. Additional diligence procedures are conducted on any appraisal with a value in excess of $250,000 but less than $500,000 upon request only and a technical review is required on appraisals with a value in excess of $1.0 million. In addition to the appraisal, both borrower and market-specific factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments. Appraisals are conducted by third-party independent appraisers under internal direction and engagement. Appraisals are either reviewed internally by our appraisal department or are sent to an outside firm if appropriate. Both levels of review involve a scope appropriate for the complexity and risk associated with the loan and its collateral. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. The Company’s internal appraisal review process validates the reasonableness of appraisals in conjunction with analyzing sales and market data from an array of market sources.

Covered Asset OREO and OREO – Covered asset OREO and OREO generated from our originated book of business are valued on a nonrecurring basis using third-party appraisals of each property and our judgment of other relevant market conditions and are classified in level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. Updated appraisals on both OREO portfolios are typically obtained every twelve months and evaluated internally at least every six months. In addition, both property-specific and market-specific factors as well as collateral type factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments. Appraisals are conducted by third-party independent appraisers under internal direction and engagement using a combination of valuation techniques such as sales comparison, income capitalization and cost approach and include inputs such as absorption rates, capitalization rates and comparables. Any appraisal with a value in excess of $250,000 is subject to a compliance review. Appraisals received with a value in excess of $1.0 million are subject to a technical review. Appraisals are either reviewed internally by our appraisal department or sent to an outside technical firm if appropriate. Both levels of review involve a scope appropriate for the complexity and risk associated with the OREO. To validate the reasonableness of the appraisals obtained, the Company compares the appraised value to the actual sales price of properties sold and analyzes the reasons why a property may be sold for less than its appraised value.

Capital Market Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities – Client-related derivative instruments with positive fair values are reported as an asset and derivative instruments with negative fair value are reported as liabilities, in both cases after taking into account the effects of master netting agreements. For derivative counterparties with which we have a master netting agreement, we elect to measure nonperformance risk on the basis of our net exposure to the counterparty. The fair value of client-related derivative assets and liabilities is determined based on prices obtained from third party advisors using standardized industry models. Many factors affect derivative values, including the level of interest rates, the market’s perception of our nonperformance risk as reflected in our credit spread, and our assessment of counterparty nonperformance risk. The nonperformance risk assessment is based on our evaluation of credit risk, or if available, on observable external assessments of credit risk. Values of client-related derivative assets and liabilities are primarily based on observable inputs and are generally classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses a variety of methods to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from third party advisors, including evaluating inputs and methodologies used by the third party advisors, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on the Company’s knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. While we may challenge prices obtained from third party advisors based on our validation procedures, we have not altered the fair values ultimately provided by the third party advisors.

Level 3 derivatives include risk participation agreements and derivatives associated with clients whose loans are risk rated 6 or higher (“watch list derivative”). Refer to “Credit Quality Indicators” in Note 4 for further discussion on risk ratings. For these level 3 derivatives, the Company obtains prices from third party advisors, consistent with the valuation processes employed for the Company’s derivatives classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and then applies loss factors to adjust the prices obtained from third party advisors. The significant unobservable inputs that are employed in the valuation process for the risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives that cause these derivatives to be classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are the historic loss factors specific to the particular industry segment and risk rating category. The loss factors are updated quarterly and are derived and aligned with the loss factors utilized in the calculation of the Company’s general reserve component of the allowance for loan losses. Changes in the fair value measurement of risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives are largely due to changes in the fair value of the derivative and to changes in the pertinent historic average loss rate.

Other Assets and Other Liabilities – Included in other assets and other liabilities are cash flow hedges designated in a hedging relationship, other end-user derivative instruments that we use to manage our foreign exchange and interest rate risk, and warrants received from borrowers in connection with loan restructurings that are accounted for as derivatives. Those derivative instruments with a positive fair value are reported as assets and those with a negative fair value are reported as liabilities. For derivative counterparties with which we have a master netting agreement, we elect to measure nonperformance risk on the basis of our net exposure to the counterparty. The fair value is determined based on prices obtained from third party advisors. The cash flow hedge derivatives and derivatives used to manage foreign exchange and interest rate risk are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses a variety of methods to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from third party advisors, including evaluating inputs and methodologies used by the third party advisors, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on Company knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. While we may challenge prices obtained from third party advisors based on our validation procedures, we have not altered the fair values ultimately provided by the third party advisors.

Warrants are classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Third party advisors use an option-pricing model to value the warrants. The significant unobservable inputs employed in the valuation model that cause the warrants to be classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are the expected volatility of the borrower’s stock price and the expected term of the warrants. The valuation model is updated quarterly and is reviewed for reasonableness by management.

Other assets and other liabilities include derivatives designated in hedging relationships, derivatives for commitments to fund certain mortgage loans held-for-sale, end-user foreign exchange derivatives and warrants received from one borrower in connection with a loan restructuring.

If a change in valuation techniques or input assumptions for an asset or liability occurred between periods, we would consider whether this would result in a transfer between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities between level 1 and level 2 of the valuation hierarchy between December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012.

There have been no changes in the valuation techniques and related inputs we used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012.

Amounts disclosed in this line are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income as capital markets products income for derivatives and other income for warrants.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, $365,000 and $131,000 of derivative assets were transferred from level 2 to level 3 of the valuation hierarchy due to a lack of observable market data, as there was deterioration in the credit risk of the derivative counterparty. Also, for the quarters ended June 30, 2012, $34,000 of derivative assets were transferred from level 3 to level 2 of the valuation hierarchy due to an improvement in the credit risk of the counterparty. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, $887,000 and $631,000 of derivative assets were transferred from level 2 to level 3 and $141,000 and $310,000 were transferred from level 3 to level 2. We recognize transfers in and transfers out at the end of each quarterly reporting period.

The change in fair value is reflected in mortgage banking non-interest income.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, none of the mortgage loans held-for-sale were on nonaccrual or 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. Changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 were not material.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

From time to time, we may be required to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair-value accounting or write-downs of individual assets when there is evidence of impairment.

The following table presents the fair value of those assets that were subject to fair value adjustments during the first six months of 2012 and 2011, and still held at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. All fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis were measured using level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives are the historic loss factors. A significant increase (decrease) in the pertinent loss factor would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. For the warrants received from borrowers, the significant unobservable inputs are the expected term of the warrants and expected volatility of the borrower’s stock price. An increase in either of these inputs would result in an increase in fair value, while a decrease in either of these inputs would result in a decrease in fair value.

Estimated Fair Value of Certain Financial Instruments

U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of the estimated fair values of certain financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, on and off-balance sheet, for which it is practical to estimate the fair value. Because the disclosure of estimated fair values provided herein excludes the fair value of certain other financial instruments and all non-financial instruments, any aggregation of the estimated fair value amounts presented would not represent total underlying value. Examples of non-financial instruments having value not disclosed herein include the future earnings potential of significant deposit customer relationships and the value of Trust and Investments’ operations and other fee-generating businesses. In addition, other significant assets including property, plant, and equipment and goodwill are not considered financial instruments and, therefore, have not been included in the disclosure.

Various methodologies and assumptions have been utilized in management’s determination of the estimated fair value of our financial instruments, which are detailed below. The fair value estimates are made at a discrete point in time based on relevant market information. Because no market exists for a significant portion of these financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected economic conditions, loss experience, and risk characteristics of the financial instruments. These estimates are subjective, involve uncertainties, and cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

In addition to the valuation methodology explained above for financial instruments recorded at fair value, the following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of financial instruments that are carried at cost in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and includes the general classification of the assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

 

44


Table of Contents

Short-term financial assets and liabilities – For financial instruments with a shorter-term or with no stated maturity, prevailing market rates, and limited credit risk, the carrying amounts approximate fair value. Those financial instruments include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments, accrued interest receivable, and accrued interest payable. Accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable are classified consistent with the hierarchy of their corresponding assets and liabilities.

Securities held-to-maturity – The fair value of securities held-to-maturity is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Non-marketable equity investments – Non-marketable equity investments include FHLB stock and certain investments we have in investment funds that make qualifying investments for purposes of supporting our community reinvestment initiatives. The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value as the stock is non-marketable, but can only be sold to the FHLB or another member institution at par. The carrying value of all other non-marketable equity investments approximates fair value.

Loans – The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. The estimate of maturity is based on contractual terms and includes assumptions that reflect our and the industry’s historical experience with repayments for each loan classification. The estimation is modified, as required, by the effect of current economic and lending conditions, collateral, and other factors.

Covered assets – Covered assets include the acquired loans and foreclosed loan collateral (including the fair value of expected reimbursements from the FDIC). The fair value of covered assets is calculated by discounting expected cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the asset. The estimate of maturity is based on contractual terms and includes assumptions that reflect our and the industry’s historical experience with repayments for each asset classification. The estimate is modified, as required, by the effect of current economic and lending conditions, collateral, and other factors.

Investment in BOLI – The fair value of our investment in bank owned life insurance is equal to its cash surrender value.

Deposit liabilities – The fair values disclosed for noninterest-bearing deposits, savings deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, and money market deposits are approximately equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The fair values for certificate of deposits and brokered deposits were estimated using present value techniques by discounting the future cash flows at rates based on internal models and broker quotes.

Short-term borrowings – The fair value of repurchase agreements and FHLB advances with remaining maturities of one year or less is estimated by discounting the obligations using the rates currently offered for repurchase agreements or borrowings of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of funds purchased and other borrowed funds approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.

Long-term debt – At June 30, 2012, the fair value of the fixed-rate junior subordinated debentures was estimated using the unadjusted publically-available market price as of period end. At December 31, 2011, the fair value was estimated by discounting cash flows, using a discount rate we believe was appropriate based on quoted interest rates and entity specific adjustments. Based on a periodic evaluation of our valuation methodology, we determined that sufficient market information for the fixed-rate junior subordinated debentures was available to support a change in our valuation technique from year end.

The fair value of the subordinated debt, FHLB advances with remaining maturities greater than one year, and the variable-rate junior subordinated debentures is estimated by discounting future cash flows. For the FHLB advances with remaining maturities greater than one year, the Company discounts cash flows using quoted interest rates for similar financial instruments. For the subordinated debt and variable-rate junior subordinated debentures, we interpolate a discount rate we believe is appropriate based on quoted interest rates and entity specific adjustments.

Commitments – Given the limited interest rate exposure posed by the commitments outstanding at period end due to their variable rate structure, termination clauses provided in the agreements, and the market rate of fees charged, we have deemed the fair value of commitments outstanding to be immaterial.

17. OPERATING SEGMENTS

We have three primary operating segments: Banking, Trust and Investments and the Holding Company. With respect to the Banking and Trust and Investments’ segments, each is delineated by the products and services that each segment offers. The Banking operating segment is comprised of commercial and personal banking services, including mortgage originations. Commercial banking services are primarily provided to corporations and other business clients and include a wide array of lending and cash management products. Personal banking services offered to individuals, professionals, and entrepreneurs include direct lending and depository services. The Trust and Investments segment includes certain activities of our PrivateWealth group, including investment management, investment advisory, personal trust and estate administration, custodial and escrow, retirement account administration, and brokerage services. The activities of the third operating segment, the Holding Company, include the direct and indirect ownership of our banking subsidiary, the issuance of debt and intersegment eliminations.

The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same as those of the Company as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated from consolidated results of operations. Financial results for each segment are presented below. For segment reporting purposes, the statement of financial condition of Trust and Investments is included with the Banking segment.

Trust preferred capital securities issuances – As discussed in Note 10, we sponsor and wholly own 100% of the common equity of four trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing Trust Preferred Securities to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities solely in Debentures issued by the Company. The trusts’ only assets were the principal balance of the Debentures and the related interest receivable, which are included within long-term debt in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the trusts and accordingly, the trusts are not consolidated in our financial statements.

Community reinvestment investments – We hold certain investments in funds that make investments to further our community reinvestment initiatives. Such investments are included within non-marketable equity investments in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Certain of these investments meet the definition of a VIE, but the Company is not the primary beneficiary as we are a limited investor in those investment funds and do not have the power to direct their investment activities. Accordingly, we will continue to account for our interests in these investments using the cost or equity method. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying amount plus additional required future capital contributions.

Troubled debt restructured loans (excluding personal and non-for-profit loans) – For certain troubled commercial loans, we restructure the terms of the borrower’s debt in an effort to increase the probability of collecting amounts contractually due. Following a troubled debt restructuring, the borrower entity typically meets the definition of a VIE as the initial determination of whether an entity is a VIE must be reconsidered and economic events have proven that the entity’s equity is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or a restructuring of the terms of its financing. As we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact such troubled commercial borrowers’ operations, we are not considered the primary beneficiary even in situations where, based on the size of the financing provided, we are exposed to potentially significant benefits and losses of the borrowing entity. We have no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the borrowing entities beyond certain funding commitments established upon restructuring of the terms of the debt. Our interests in the troubled commercial borrowers include outstanding loans and related derivative assets, which includes interest rate swaps and warrants. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to these interests plus any additional future capital commitments.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

PrivateBancorp, Inc. (“PrivateBancorp” or the “Company”), is a Delaware corporation and bank holding company headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Through our wholly-owned bank subsidiary, The PrivateBank and Trust Company (the “Bank” or the “PrivateBank”), we provide customized business and personal financial services to middle-market companies and business owners, executives, entrepreneurs and families in all the markets and communities we serve. We operate in seven geographic markets in the Midwest, as well as Denver and Atlanta with a majority of our business conducted in the greater Chicago market.

We deliver a full spectrum of commercial and personal banking products and services to our clients through our commercial banking, community banking and private wealth businesses. We offer clients a full range of lending, treasury management, and investment and capital markets products to meet their commercial needs and residential mortgage banking, private banking, trust and investment services to meet their personal needs.

Management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes presented elsewhere in this report, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. Unless otherwise stated, all earnings per share data included in this section and throughout the remainder of this discussion are presented on a fully-diluted basis.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this report that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements represent management’s beliefs and expectations regarding future events, such as our anticipated future financial results, credit quality, revenues, expenses, or other financial items, and the impact of business plans and strategies or legislative or regulatory actions. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” or “continue” and other comparable terminology.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effects of future plans, strategies or events is inherently uncertain. Factors which could cause actual results to differ from those reflected in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: unforeseen credit quality problems or further deterioration in problem assets that could result in charge-offs greater than we have anticipated in our allowance for loan losses; adverse developments impacting one or more large credits; the extent of

further deterioration in real estate values in our market areas, particularly in the Chicago area; difficulties in resolving problem credits or slower than anticipated dispositions of other real estate owned which may result in increased losses or higher credit-related operating costs; continued uncertainty regarding U.S. and global economic recovery and economic outlook, and ongoing volatility in market conditions, that may impact credit quality or prolong weakness in demand for loans or other banking products and services; unanticipated withdrawals of significant client deposits; the availability of cost-effective sources of liquidity or funding; the terms and availability of capital to the extent necessary to repay TARP preferred stock or otherwise required; loss of key personnel or an inability to recruit and retain appropriate talent; unanticipated changes in interest rates or significant tightening of credit spreads; increased competitive pricing pressures; uncertainty relating to recently proposed regulatory capital rules that could, depending on the nature of our assets, require us to maintain higher levels of regulatory capital; uncertainty regarding implications of recently adopted or proposed rules and regulations, or those remaining to be proposed in connection with implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act that may negatively affect our revenues or profitability; other legislative, regulatory or accounting changes affecting financial services companies and/or the products and services offered by financial services companies; or failures or disruptions to our data processing or other information or operational systems.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties and could be significantly affected by many factors, including those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of this Form 10-Q as well as those set forth in our subsequent periodic and current reports filed with the SEC. These factors should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we assume no obligation to update any of these statements in public filings in light of future events unless required under the federal securities laws.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), and our accounting policies are consistent with predominant practices in the financial services industry. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management to make the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments based on information available at the date of the financial statements that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements.

Our most significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other consolidated financial statement notes and in this discussion, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, management has determined that our accounting policies with respect to the allowance for loan losses, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and fair value measurement are the accounting areas requiring subjective or complex judgments that are most important to our financial position and results of operations, and, as such, are considered to be critical accounting policies, as discussed below.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to absorb credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is assessed quarterly and represents an accounting estimate of probable losses in the portfolio at each balance sheet date based on a review of available and relevant information at that time. The allowance consists of reserves for probable losses that have been identified relating to specific borrowing relationships that are individually evaluated for impairment (“the specific component”), as well as probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio that are not specifically identified (“the general allocated component”), which is determined using a methodology that is a function of quantitative and qualitative factors applied to segments of our loan portfolio as well as management’s judgment.

The specific component relates to impaired loans. Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual loans (which include nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”)) and loans classified as accruing TDRs. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the loan’s observable fair value, fair value of the underlying collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral-dependent, or the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate.

 

50


Table of Contents

If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized by creating a specific valuation reserve as a component of the allowance for loan losses. Impaired loans exceeding $500,000 are evaluated individually, while loans less than $500,000 are evaluated as pools using historical loss experience, as well as management’s loss expectations, for the respective asset class and product type.

All impaired loans and their related reserves are reviewed and updated each quarter. Any impaired loan for which a determination has been made that the economic value is permanently reduced is charged-off against the allowance for loan losses to reflect its current economic value in the period in which the determination has been made.

At the time a collateral-dependent loan is initially determined to be impaired, we review the existing collateral appraisal. If the most recent appraisal is greater than a year old, a new appraisal is obtained on the underlying collateral. The Company generally obtains “as is” appraisal values for use in the evaluation of collateral dependent impaired loans. Appraisals for loans in excess of $500,000 are updated with a new independent appraisal at least annually and are formally reviewed by our internal appraisal department upon receipt of a new appraisal as well as at the six-month interval between the independent appraisals. If during the course of the six-month review period there is evidence supporting a meaningful decline in the value of collateral, the appraised value is either internally adjusted downward per procedure or a new appraisal is required to support the value of the impaired loan. With an immaterial number of exceptions, all appraisals and internal reviews are current under this methodology at June 30, 2012.

To determine the general allocated component of the allowance for loan losses, we segregate loans by originating line of business and vintage (“transformational” and “legacy”) for reserve purposes because of observable similarities in the performance experience of loans underwritten by these business units. In general, loans originated by the business units that existed prior to the strategic changes of the Company in 2007 are considered “legacy” loans. Loans originated by a business unit that was established in connection with or following the strategic business transformation plan are considered “transformational” loans. Renewals or restructurings of legacy loans may continue to be evaluated as legacy loans depending on the structure or defining characteristics of the new transaction. The Company has implemented a line of business model that has reorganized the legacy business units so that after 2009, all new loan originations are considered transformational.

The methodology produces an estimated range of potential loss exposure for the product types within each originating line of business. We consider the appropriate balance of the general allocated component of the reserve within these ranges based on a variety of internal and external quantitative and qualitative factors to reflect data or timeframes not captured by the basic allowance framework as well as market and economic data and management judgment. In certain instances, these additional factors and judgments may lead to management’s conclusion that the appropriate level of the reserve is outside the range determined through the basic allowance framework.

Determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires significant estimates, including the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, risk ratings, product type, and vintage, as well as consideration of current economic trends and portfolio attributes, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. For instance, loss rates in our allowance methodology typically reflect the Company’s more recent loss experience, by product, on a trailing twelve or eighteen month basis. These loss rates consider both cumulative charge offs to date and other real estate owned value adjustments in the individual product categories which comprise our allowance. Default estimates use a multi-year cumulative calculation of defaults by product. In addition, we compare current model-derived and historically established reserve levels to recent charge-off trends and history in considering the appropriate final level of reserve at each product level.

Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged-off against the allowance, while recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance. A provision for loan losses, which is a charge against earnings, is recorded to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that, in management’s judgment, is appropriate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired using the acquisition method of accounting. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that also lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights or because the asset is capable of being sold or exchanged either on its own or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability.

Goodwill is allocated to reporting units at acquisition. Subsequently, goodwill is not amortized but, instead, is tested at the reporting unit level at least annually for impairment or more often if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. In the event that we conclude that all or a portion of our goodwill may be impaired, a noncash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded in earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible or regulatory capital. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would indicate impairment of goodwill at June 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

The impairment testing process is conducted by assigning net assets and goodwill to each reporting unit. In “step one,” the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to the recorded book value. Our step one calculation of each reporting unit’s fair value is based upon a simple average of two metrics: (1) a primary market approach, which measures fair value based upon trading multiples of independent publicly traded financial institutions of comparable size and character to the reporting units, and (2) an income approach, which estimates fair value based upon discounted cash flows (“DCF”) and terminal value (using the perpetuity growth method). If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and “step two” is not considered necessary. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the impairment test continues (“step two”) by comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to the implied fair value of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined using the residual approach, where the fair value of a reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit, calculated in step one, is the price paid to acquire the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment charge is recognized to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill.

Under new accounting guidance effective January 1, 2012, the Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment for each reporting unit to determine of whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value before applying the existing two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes that this is the case, the Company would proceed with the existing two-step test, as described above. Otherwise, the Company would be able to bypass the two-step test and conclude that goodwill is not impaired from a qualitative perspective.

Goodwill impairment testing is considered a “critical accounting estimate” as estimates and assumptions are made about future performance and cash flows, as well as other prevailing market factors. For our annual impairment testing, we engage an independent valuation firm to assist in the computation of the fair value estimates of each reporting unit as part of its impairment assessment. In connection with obtaining an independent third-party valuation, management provides certain information and assumptions that are utilized in the DCF and implied fair value calculations. Assumptions critical to the process include: forecasted earnings, which are developed for each segment by considering several key business drivers such as historical performance, forward interest rates (using forward interest rate curves to forecast future expected interest rates), anticipated loan and deposit growth, and industry and economic trends; discount rates; and credit quality assessments, among other considerations. We provide the best information available at the time to be used in these estimates and calculations.

Identified intangible assets that have a finite useful life are amortized over that life in a manner that reflects the estimated decline in the economic value of the identified intangible asset and are subject to impairment testing whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. During the second quarter of 2012, there were no events or circumstances to indicate that there may be impairment of intangible assets. All of the other intangible assets have finite lives which are amortized over varying periods not exceeding 15 years and include core deposit premiums, client relationship, and assembled workforce intangibles, which are amortized on a straight line basis.

Income Taxes

The determination of income tax expense or benefit, and the amounts of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on complex analyses of many factors, including interpretations of federal and state income tax laws, current financial accounting standards, the difference between tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences), assessments of the likelihood that the reversals of deferred deductible temporary differences will yield tax benefits, and estimates of reserves required for tax uncertainties. In addition, for interim reporting purposes, management generally determines its income tax provision, exclusive of any discrete items, based on its current best estimate of pre-tax income, permanent differences and the resulting effective tax rate expected for the full year.

We are subject to the federal income tax laws of the United States and the tax laws of the states and other jurisdictions where we conduct business. We periodically undergo examination by various governmental taxing authorities. Such authorities may require that changes in the amount of tax expense be recognized when their interpretations of tax law differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations. There can be no assurance that future events, such as court decisions, new interpretations of existing law or positions by federal or state taxing authorities, will not result in tax liability amounts that differ from our current assessment of such amounts, the impact of which could be significant to future results.

Table of Contents

Temporary differences may give rise to deferred tax assets or liabilities, which are recorded on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. We assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods based on weighing both positive and negative evidence and establish a valuation allowance for those deferred tax assets for which recovery is unlikely, based on a standard of “more likely” than not. In making this assessment, we must make judgments and estimates regarding the ability to realize these assets through: (a) the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, (b) future taxable income, (c) the possible application of future tax planning strategies, and (d) carryback to taxable income in prior years. We have not established a valuation allowance relating to our deferred tax assets at June 30, 2012. However, there is no guarantee that the tax benefits associated with these deferred tax assets will be fully realized. We have concluded, as of June 30, 2012, that it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will be realized.

In the preparation of income tax returns, tax positions are taken based on interpretation of federal and state income tax laws for which the outcome of such positions may not be certain. We periodically review and evaluate the status of uncertain tax positions and may establish tax reserves for tax benefits that may not be realized. The amount of any such reserves are based on the standards for determining such reserves as set forth in current accounting guidance and our estimates of amounts that may ultimately be due or owed (including interest). These estimates may change from time to time based on our evaluation of developments subsequent to the filing of the income tax return, such as tax authority audits, court decisions or other tax law interpretations. There can be no assurance that any tax reserves will be sufficient to cover tax liabilities that may ultimately be determined to be owed. At June 30, 2012, we had $122,000 of tax reserves established relating to uncertain tax positions that would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized in future periods.

Fair Value Measurements

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value at each reporting date, including securities available-for-sale, derivatives, and certain loans held-for-sale. Additionally, other assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including goodwill and other intangible assets, impaired loans, and other real estate owned (“OREO”), which are subject to fair value adjustments under certain circumstances.

The Company measures fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes fair value measurements based on the observability of the valuation inputs used in determining fair value. Level 1 valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 2 valuations are based on quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 valuations use at least one significant unobservable input that is supported by little or no market activity.

Judgment is required to determine whether certain assets measured at fair value are included in Level 2 or Level 3. When making this judgment, we consider all available information, including observable market data, indications of market liquidity and orderliness, and our understanding of the valuation techniques and significant inputs used. Classification of Level 2 or Level 3 is based upon the specific facts and circumstances of each instrument or instrument category and judgments are made regarding the significance of the Level 3 inputs to the instruments’ fair value measurement in its entirety. If Level 3 inputs are considered significant, the instrument is classified as Level 3.

Judgment is also required when determining the fair value of an asset or liability when either relevant observable inputs do not exist or available observable inputs are in a market that is not active. When relevant observable inputs are not available, the Company must use its own assumptions about future cash flows and appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates. Conversely, in some cases observable inputs may require significant adjustments. For example, in cases where the volume and level of trading activity in an asset or liability is very limited, actual transaction prices vary significantly over time or among market participants, or the prices are not current, the observable inputs may not be relevant and could require adjustment.

The Company uses a variety of methods to measure the fair value of financial instruments on a recurring basis and to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from external sources on at least a quarterly basis, including evaluating pricing service inputs and methodologies, using exception reports based on analytical criteria, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on Company knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The inability to precisely measure the fair value of certain assets, such as OREO, may lead to changes in the fair value of those assets over time as unobservable inputs change, which can result in volatility in the amount of income or loss recorded for a particular position from quarter to quarter.

USE OF NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This report contains both U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures include net interest income, net interest margin, net revenue, operating profit, and efficiency ratio all on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry. Where non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found in Table 32. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-U.S. GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

SECOND QUARTER OVERVIEW

We reported net income available to common stockholders of $14.1 million for the second quarter 2012, more than doubling compared to $5.5 million for the second quarter 2011 and up 30% compared to $10.8 million for the first quarter 2012. On a per share basis, we earned $0.19 in the second quarter 2012, up from $0.08 reported in the year ago quarter and from $0.15 in the first quarter 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net income available to common stockholders rose 91% to $24.9 million from $13.0 million for the first six months of 2011, while earnings per share rose to $0.34 from $0.18. Our results continue to be impacted by the ongoing uncertainty in the economic climate and the historically low interest rates that have prevailed over the past few years.

Compared to prior year, our financial results reflect our continued focus on building client relationships and working through asset quality problems that arose during the financial crisis. We have grown total loans more than $760 million or 9% over the last year, while problem loans, including nonperforming loans, have declined almost $470 million. We have added new clients and increased fee revenues from product sales to new and existing clients, including growth in treasury management, capital markets, mortgage banking and syndication fees. Higher net revenues and lower provision for loan losses have led to increased profitability in the current year periods.

Highlights for the second quarter 2012 include:

 

   

Net income was $14.1 million, up 30% from the first quarter 2012, largely as a result of lower provision for loan losses.

 

   

Net interest income of $105.3 million increased from $104.4 million in the first quarter 2012, as growth in average loans offset the impact of net interest margin compression.

 

   

Operating profit of $48.4 million declined $3.9 million from first quarter 2012, primarily as a result of higher net foreclosed property expense.

 

   

Net interest margin was 3.46% for the second quarter 2012, up from 3.36% in the second quarter 2011, and down from 3.53% in the first quarter of 2012.

 

   

Asset quality continued to improve during the quarter with nonperforming, special mention and potential problem loans declining 14% from March 31, 2012. The provision for loan losses declined to $17.4 million in the second quarter of 2012 from $27.6 million in the first quarter of 2012.

 

   

Total loans grew $214.0 million to $9.4 billion at June 30, 2012, driven by growth in commercial and industrial loans which comprised 63% of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2012.

Despite higher net revenue for the second quarter of 2012 compared to the prior year period, operating profit was relatively flat due to an increase in non-interest expense primarily related to higher valuation write-downs on foreclosed property. Net foreclosed property expense totaled $11.9 million for the quarter, up 59% compared to the same period in 2011 and up 44% compared to the prior quarter. We expect our workout and credit-related costs, including foreclosed property expense, will remain elevated, and may fluctuate quarter-to-quarter, as we continue to resolve remaining problem loans and work to liquidate properties we acquire through foreclosure. Our efficiency ratio was 63.39% for second quarter 2012, modestly higher than recent quarters, primarily due to the higher credit-related costs. Higher compensation expense in the 2012 periods reflects increases in incentive pay tied to revenue performance and the cumulative impact of deferred compensation and equity incentive programs initiated in 2010 that are accounted for over three-year vesting periods.

Growth in average loans and a decline in funding costs contributed to increased net interest income in 2012 as compared to the prior year periods. In comparison to the first quarter of 2012, the $331.2 million increase in average loans in the second quarter of 2012 offset the impact of declining average yields on our loan and investment portfolios. The lower loan yields reflect the competitive pricing conditions in certain of our markets. While overall changes in the mix of the loan portfolio over the past year have been favorable to net interest margin, average yields on our investment securities portfolio and new loan production are generally trending lower, impacting our net interest margin. With approximately 90% of our loan portfolio comprised of variable rate loans, the majority tied to short-term LIBOR, the asset-liability position of our balance sheet is asset sensitive and our net interest margin should benefit if interest rates rise.

We saw meaningful improvement in our asset quality metrics during the quarter and the past 12 months. Nonperforming assets declined 30% from June 30, 2011, and 11% from March 31, 2012. Nonperforming assets to total assets were 2.47% at June 30, 2012, compared to 3.75% a year ago, and 2.83% at March 31, 2012. Nonperforming loans declined 37% from June 30, 2011, and 10% from the end of the first quarter 2012. Early stage problem loans, which we classify as special mention and potential problem loans, declined 56% from the second quarter 2011, and 17% from the first quarter 2012. Our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans declined to 1.85% at June 30, 2012, compared to 2.38% a year ago, reflecting overall improvement in asset quality and the reduced requirement for specific reserves. Compared to first quarter 2012, second quarter charge-offs were lower, recoveries were higher, and the provision for loan losses declined by $10.2 million. During the second quarter, we disposed of $50.8 million of problem assets, with an incremental charge of 2% based on the carrying value net of specific reserves at the time of disposition. Based on ongoing workout and disposition activity, we expect problem assets to continue to trend lower in the second half of 2012, driving further improvement in asset quality metrics.

Total deposits at June 30, 2012 increased by $341.7 million from year end 2011 as interest-bearing demand, brokered, and time deposits increased, partially offset by declines in noninterest-bearing deposits and money market accounts. Noninterest-bearing deposits were 27% of total deposits at June 30, 2012 and 31% at December 31, 2011. We increased our use of brokered deposits during the second quarter 2012 as a funding source and reduced $300 million of our outstanding short-term borrowings with the FHLB in early July 2012. Brokered deposits, excluding client CDARS®, were 7% of total deposits at June 30, 2012.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income equals the excess of interest income (including discount accretion on covered loans) plus fees earned on interest-earning assets over interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. The level of interest rates and the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities impact net interest income.

Interest rate spread and net interest margin are utilized to measure and explain changes in net interest income. Interest rate spread is the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities that fund those assets. The net interest margin is expressed as the percentage of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin exceeds the interest rate spread because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, principally noninterest-bearing demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, also support interest-earning assets.

The accounting policies underlying the recognition of interest income on loans, securities, and other interest-earning assets are included in Note 1 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

For purposes of this discussion, net interest income and any ratios or metrics that include net interest income as a component, such as for example, net interest margin, have been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis to more appropriately compare the returns on certain tax-exempt securities to those on taxable interest-earning assets.

The reconciliation of tax-equivalent net interest income is presented in the following table.

For purposes of this table, changes which are not due solely to volume changes or rate changes are allocated to such categories in proportion to the absolute amounts of the change in each.

Interest income included $6.3 million and $5.5 million in loan fees for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(3) 

Interest income and yields are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%. See Table 2 for a reconciliation of the effect of the tax-equivalent adjustment.

(4) 

Average loans on a nonaccrual basis for the recognition of interest income totaled $222.1 million and $357.2 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and are included in loans for purposes of this analysis. Interest foregone on non-performing loans was estimated to be approximately $2.3 million and $3.7 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, based on the average loan portfolio yield for the respective period.

(5) 

Covered interest-earning assets consist of loans acquired through a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)-assisted transaction that is subject to a loss share agreement and the related indemnification asset. Refer to the section entitled “Covered Assets” for a detailed discussion.

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased 5% to $106.0 million in the second quarter 2012 compared to $101.2 million for the second quarter 2011. Growth in average loans balances of $415.8 million combined with a 12 basis point decline in cost of funds contributed to the $4.8 million increase in net interest income from the prior year quarter. The benefit of increased loan volume for the current quarter was mitigated by a $2.1 million decrease of interest income on the covered asset portfolio that was driven almost equally by both rate and volume, and a $782,000 decline in interest income from our securities portfolio on a tax-equivalent basis, as average yields on our security portfolio declined 65 basis points. Of the $3.1 million in lower interest expense, $2.3 million was attributable to an overall decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits combined with a favorable change in the mix of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits. Average interest-bearing deposits decreased $380.5 million while average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $439.3 million from the second quarter 2011. The combination of increased noninterest-bearing deposits and lower costing borrowings accounted for the residual difference in reduced interest expense.

Net interest margin was 3.46% for the second quarter 2012, an increase of 10 basis points from 3.36% for the second quarter 2011. The net interest margin increase period to period was primarily due to the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreasing by 12 basis points as interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings repriced downward over the past year, as well as a $439.3 million, or 17%, increase in average noninterest-bearing deposits. The yield on earning assets decreased by two basis points, as the yield and income on the covered asset portfolio declined significantly, and the lower interest rate environment negatively impacted the investment portfolio yield. Net interest margin over the past several quarters has been relatively stable, supported in part by the redeployment of nonperforming loans which muted the effects of declining loan yields; however, as nonperforming loans decline, the extent of the benefit from such redeployment to net interest margin diminishes.

In the third quarter 2011, we began a cash flow hedging program by entering into receive fixed/pay variable interest rate swaps to hedge certain floating-rate commercial loans in order to reduce the variability in forecasted interest payments due to changes in market interest rate. The notional value of these cash flow hedges at June 30, 2012 was $300.0 million with a positive impact on net interest income for the second quarter 2012 of $795,000, contributing three basis points to current quarter margin.

Average interest-earning assets grew $232.2 million compared to the prior year period, due to increases in average loan and security balances which were partially offset by decreases in average fed funds sold and other short-term investments. We have continued to shift the mix of loans toward commercial loans which generally provide higher yields and greater potential for cross-selling of other products and services. Average commercial loan balances increased by $606.6 million from the prior year quarter. This shift in the loan mix accompanied a decrease in the average construction loan balance of $260.2 million from the prior year period. Also, year-over-year, we reduced low-yielding average fed funds sold and other short term investments by $421.0 million and increased average securities by $331.7 million to continue to support liquidity needs but at more attractive yields than federal funds balances.

Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $230.1 million compared to the prior year second quarter, primarily due to the decline in average interest-bearing deposits, as the deposit mix shifted from money market accounts to noninterest-bearing deposits. Average noninterest-bearing deposits were 28% of total average deposits for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, an increase from 24% for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Refer to the section entitled “Deposits” included in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of this Form 10-Q for additional discussion on client deposits.

On a sequential quarter basis, net interest margin for second quarter 2012 was 3.46%, down seven basis points from 3.53% for first quarter 2012. As presented in the ‘Quarterly Net Interest Margin Trend” table above, the net interest margin has remained relatively stable over the past five quarters, despite declining investment yields which, for the most part, were offset by reductions in funding costs. Net interest margin had also benefitted from rotations in our loan portfolio mix reflecting a reduction in non-performing loans and growth in commercial and industrial loan portfolio, principally in specialty lines such as healthcare, engineering and construction, and asset based lending, which can command pricing premiums due to elevated complexity and risk and require industry expertise. The seven basis points decline in the current quarter net interest margin was driven primarily by a ten basis point reduction in loan yields. After three consecutive quarters of relatively robust loan fees driven by transactional activities including early loan repayments, the current quarter experienced a return to more normalized levels which accounted for five basis points of the reduction in loan yields. The residual five basis points reduction can be attributed to lower spreads as new and repriced loans and yields, reflecting the current marketplace, became a larger portion of the loan portfolio.

Our net interest margin has been impacted by pricing compression as a result of heightened competition in our target markets, due to low loan demand levels in the uncertain economic climate. This heighted competition is not only impacting yields on loans to new clients, but also business that is being renewed with existing clients. Our average loan yields are also impacted by the amount of fees recognized in connection with early loan payoff activity and recognition of prepayment fees, reduction in the level in nonaccrual loans and the product mix in our loan portfolio. We do not anticipate significant continued benefit to net interest margin in future periods from downward repricing of deposits given the current level of interest rates, which are at historical lows.

(4) 

Average loans on a nonaccrual basis for the recognition of interest income totaled $240.3 million and $368.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and are included in loans for purposes of this analysis. Interest foregone on non-performing loans was estimated to be approximately $5.1 million and $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, based on the average loan portfolio yield for the respective period.

(5) 

Covered interest-earning assets consist of loans acquired through a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)-assisted transaction that is subject to a loss share agreement and the related indemnification asset. Refer to the section entitled “Covered Assets” for a detailed discussion.

As shown in Table 4, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, net interest margin was 3.49%, an increase of eight basis points from 3.41% for the prior year period. Tax equivalent net interest income increased $6.5 million to $211.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $204.6 million for the prior year period. The year-over-year improvement in net interest income was primarily attributable to the $7.5 million reduction in the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The benefit provided by the $505.5 million growth in average securities and loans was more than offset by lower rates earned on new securities combined with lower interest income earned on the covered asset portfolio due to reduced balances and rate as accretion levels have declined from the year ago period.

Provision for loan losses

The provision for loan losses, excluding the provision for covered loans, was $17.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, down from $31.7 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the provision for loan losses was $45.0 million and $68.4 million, respectively. The provision for loan losses is a function of our allowance for loan loss methodology used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for inherent loan losses after net charge-offs have been deducted. The current period provision benefited from an overall improvement in asset quality and the reduced requirement for specific reserves as nonperforming loans continued to decline. Net charge-offs were $26.9 million in the second quarter 2012 compared to $43.7 million for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net charge-offs were $62.3 million and $85.0 million, respectively. For further analysis and information on how we determine the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses and analysis of credit quality, see “Critical Accounting Policies” and “Credit Quality Management and Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Provision for covered loan losses

For the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we released a portion of our allowance for covered loan losses related to the loans purchased under the FDIC-assisted transaction loss share agreement by $365,000 and $632,000, respectively. The reduction of the allowance, and corresponding reduction in provision, was related to better than originally anticipated performance in expected cash flows on certain pools of covered loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we released a portion of our allowance for covered loan losses by $299,000, with a corresponding reduction in provision, compared to an increase in the provision by $240,000 in the prior year period. The provision for covered loan losses represents the 20% portion of expected losses on covered loans not reimbursed by the FDIC. For further information regarding the FDIC-assisted transaction, see “Covered Assets.”

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income is derived from a number of sources related to our banking activities, including loan and credit-related fees, the sale of derivative products to clients through our capital markets group, treasury management services, and fees from our Trust and Investments business. The following table presents a break-out of these multiple sources of revenue.

Second quarter 2012 compared to second quarter 2011

Non-interest income for second quarter 2012 totaled $26.2 million, increasing 22% compared to $21.6 million in the second quarter 2011, with mortgage banking income, capital markets products income, treasury management income, and loan and credit-related fees leading the improvement over the prior year period. These items were partially offset by lower trust and investments fees, deposit service charges and fees and other income, and net security losses.

Trust and Investments fee revenue declined 9% compared to second quarter 2011 due to the absence of larger estate fees recognized in the prior year period, the impact of exiting certain non-strategic relationships and the loss of fees within the Bank’s investment management subsidiary following the departure of two relationship managers in connection with organizational changes during the second quarter 2012, as previously disclosed in our March 31, 2012 quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

The decline in our Trust and Investments fee revenue also relates to a shift in our investment management strategy. During the past year, client portfolios have been increasingly invested in mutual funds and ETFs, with reduced reliance on third-party investment managers. Accordingly, the fees collected from our clients for investment management services decreased with a reduction in investment expenses attributable to fees we pay to these investment managers, compared to the prior year period. Assets under management and administration (“AUMA”) grew to $4.7 billion at June 30, 2012 from $4.3 billion at December 31, 2011 primarily due to new custodial assets added in first quarter 2012. The increase in custodial assets is largely attributable to a change in regulations requiring certain companies to utilize a “qualified custodian,” such as the Bank, for the administration and custody of their clients’ assets. Fees earned on custody assets are typically a flat fee structure and generally are lower than fees recognized on the managed asset portfolio which are based on the value of the underlying assets. Custody assets as a percentage of total AUMA were 44% and 37% as of June 30, 2012 and December 2011, respectively.

Revenue from our mortgage banking business increased to $2.9 million, compared to $704,000 for the prior year period, as low interest rates continue to drive refinance activity while purchase activity has also increased. Rates currently remain low and application volumes continued to be strong during the second quarter 2012. Also impacting the second quarter 2012 comparability is the absence of origination costs netted against revenue as was the case in the second quarter 2011. Effective in third quarter 2011, such costs are included in non-interest expense. We continue to strategically reinvest in our mortgage banking business. Mortgage lending personnel increased 40% since the second quarter 2011.

Capital markets product income increased $2.2 million, or 56%, compared to second quarter 2011 and included a negative $830,000 credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”) compared to a negative CVA of $573,000 for the second quarter 2011. The CVA represents the credit component of fair value with regard to both client-based derivatives and the related matched derivatives with interbank dealer counterparties. Exclusive of CVA adjustments, year-over-year capital markets income increased by $2.4 million, a 54% increase, to $6.9 million in the current period compared to $4.4 million in the second quarter 2011. Our capital markets business opportunities are sensitive to loan originations and our clients’ interest rate expectation.

Table of Contents

Treasury management income increased $807,000, or 18%, compared to the second quarter 2011. Revenue growth for these services is closely correlated with loan originations and the acquisition of new middle market lending clients, though often subject to a three to six month implementation lag. The current quarter increase reflects ongoing success in cross-selling treasury management services to new commercial clients as the Company continued to build new client relationships. In addition, during December 2011, we changed our earnings credit rate (the rate applied to balances maintained in the client’s deposit account to offset activity charges) which resulted in an additional $100,000 in collected fees during the second quarter 2012.

Loan and credit-related fees increased $1.1 million, or 21%, compared to second quarter 2011 and is principally due to a higher volume of syndication revenue, driven by increased lead agency credits, and to a lesser extent, an increase in unused commitment fees. Strong growth in syndications (particularly in our specialized areas of healthcare and asset-based lending) is attributed to leveraging the Bank’s reputation for execution and a growing distribution network, which drives our ability to garner new business. The majority of our unused commitment fees relate to revolving facilities, which at June 30, 2012 totaled $6.9 billion, of which $3.9 billion were unused. In comparison, at June 30, 2011, commitments related to revolving facilities totaled $6.0 billion, of which $3.2 billion were unused.

Deposit service charges and fees and other income declined $240,000 in second quarter 2012, or 13%, compared to the prior year period. A reduction in card-based interchange fees, which is attributable to new fee limits provided for under the Dodd-Frank Act, and a decline in Small Business Administration loans, which fluctuate with loan demand, contributed to the current quarter variance.

Net securities losses totaled $290,000 for the second quarter 2012, compared to $670,000 in net securities gains for the second quarter 2011, which primarily related to net losses recognized on certain investment funds that make qualifying investments for purposes of supporting our community reinvestment initiatives (“CRA investments”) during the second quarter 2012.

Six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to six months ended June 30, 2011

Total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $53.8 million, increasing 19% compared to $45.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 with capital markets products income, mortgage banking income, treasury management, and loan and credit-related fees leading the improvement over the prior year period. These increases were partially offset by lower deposit service charges and fees and other income, net securities losses, and lower trust and investments fees.

Trust and investments fee revenue declined 9% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to the absence of larger estate fees recognized in the prior year period, the discontinuation of land trust fees due to the sale of the land trust business late in the first quarter 2011 and the loss of fees due to the organizational changes in the Bank’s investment management subsidiary during second quarter 2012, along with a shift in investment practices discussed above which caused fees collected for investment management services to decrease with a reduction to investment expenses compared to the prior year period.

Revenue from our mortgage banking business more than doubled to $5.6 million in the current year to date period, compared to $2.1 million in the prior year period as higher application volumes from late 2011 worked their way through to closing in first quarter 2012 and continued high level of refinance application volumes.

Capital markets income increased $5.0 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 and included a negative $811,000 CVA compared to a positive CVA of $244,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Exclusive of CVA adjustments, year-over-year capital markets income increased by $6.1 million, or 75%, to $14.2 million in the current period compared to $8.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011. Capital markets revenues were favorably impacted by a higher volume of foreign exchange activity in the first quarter 2012 and driven in part by volatility in the foreign exchange markets, larger transactions and increased penetration of the client base.

Treasury management income increased $1.6 million, or 19%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The current year increase reflects ongoing success in cross-selling treasury management services to new commercial clients as the Company continued to build new client relationships. In addition, the December 2011 change in our earnings credit rate (discussed above) resulted in an additional $200,000 in collected fees during the first six months of 2012.

Table of Contents

Loan and credit-related fees increased $1.7 million, or 15%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 and is principally due to a higher volume of syndication revenue driven by increased lead agency credits and greater unused commitment fees. Refer to further discussion above on the second quarter 2012 compared to second quarter 2011.

Deposit service charges and fees and other income declined $1.2 million, or 28%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $672,000 in gain on sale of various assets recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2011, including the sale of our land trust accounts. In addition, a decline in Small Business Administration loans, which fluctuate with loan demand, and a reduction in card-based interchange fees, which is attributable to new fee limits provided for under the Dodd-Frank Act, contributed to the year-over-year variance.

Net securities losses totaled $185,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to net securities gains of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. During the first six months 2012, we sold $746,000 in book value of tax-exempt municipal securities, resulting in the recognition of net securities gains of $66,000. In addition, we recognized $251,000 in net losses, primarily on CRA investments, during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Second quarter 2012 compared to second quarter 2011

Non-interest expense increased for the second quarter 2012 by $8.2 million, or 11%, compared to the second quarter of 2011, primarily due to increases in compensation expense and net foreclosed property expense, partially offset by reduced FDIC insurance expense and loan and collection expense.

Compensation expense increased overall in second quarter 2012 by $3.5 million, or 9%, compared to second quarter 2011. Salary and wages were up slightly by $433,000 or 2% largely due to annual salary increases, as well as an increase in headcount since June 2011. Share-based payment costs were higher by $1.0 million primarily due to a full quarter’s expense recognition of annual stock-based awards issued in late February 2012 resulting from a greater number of awards issued than in the prior year as well as an adjustment to forfeiture estimates during the period. The aggregate level of awards was increased because, as previously disclosed in our 2012 proxy statement, we expanded to a larger employee base an incentive compensation deferral program under which a portion of 2011 annual incentive compensation awards paid in 2012 was deferred in the form of time-vested restricted stock. Incentive compensation, retirement costs and other employee benefits were up by $2.1 million or 19% compared to second quarter 2011 principally due to higher incentive compensation accruals related to the Company’s performance against stated goals and commission-based pay linked to fee-based revenues such as mortgage banking and capital markets, both of which had significantly higher revenues in 2012 than the prior year period as presented in Table 5.

Technology and related costs increased in second quarter 2012 by $544,000, or 20%, compared to second quarter 2011 and was primarily due to investments in data networking to provide greater bandwidth and improve overall service levels, as well as higher volumes in transaction based data processing fees for client-based services (loans, deposits and wires).

Marketing expense increased in second quarter 2012 by $558,000, or 22%, compared to second quarter 2011 and was due to advertising costs associated with our new advertising program to raise our corporate profile in 2012.

Outsourced servicing costs increased in second quarter 2012 by $241,000, or 13%, from the second quarter 2011 primarily due to volume-related increases from third-party lockbox providers and also included expense associated with tax processing services for our trust and investment clients that were incurred in the first quarter 2011 on a comparative basis.

Second quarter 2012 net foreclosed property expenses, which include write-downs on foreclosed properties, gains and losses on sales of foreclosed properties, taxes, and other expenses associated with the maintenance of OREO, increased $4.4 million, or 59%, compared to second quarter 2011. Valuation write-downs represented the largest portion of this expense and totaled $9.2 million in the current quarter compared to $5.5 million in the prior year quarter, with $6.1 million of the current period expense related to land parcels, where the property values have continued to decline. Net loss on sale of OREO in second quarter 2012, while higher than the prior year period, decreased 58% from first quarter 2012, indicating the continued volatility in this expense as we determine appropriate asset resolution strategies each period. Net foreclosed property expense may remain elevated and fluctuate as we actively resolve problem loans and liquidate the related collateral. At June 30, 2012, OREO totaled $109.8 million, representing 407 individual properties. The timing of dispositions will depend on a number of factors, including the pace and timing of the overall recovery of the economy, activity and pricing levels in the real estate market and real estate inventory coming into the market for sale. Please refer to the “Foreclosed Real Estate” discussion in the “Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for more information regarding our OREO portfolio and valuation process.

Insurance costs decreased in second quarter 2012 by $853,000, or 17%, compared to second quarter 2011 and was primarily due to lower deposit insurance assessments as a result of clarifying guidance provided in third quarter 2011 by the FDIC on certain elements in its revised insurance methodology that became effective in April 2011. The new assessment regulations modified the assessment base from one based on domestic deposits to a risk-assessed balance sheet model.

Loan and collection expense, which consists of certain non-reimbursable costs associated with performing loan activities and loan remediation costs of problem loans, decreased in second quarter 2012 by $1.3 million, or 31%, compared to second quarter 2011 as activity is decreasing in conjunction with the overall decrease in problem loans and was partially offset by higher costs associated with greater mortgage application volumes in connection with our performing loan activities. Although loan remediation costs were down on a comparative basis, they are likely to remain elevated as we continue to address problem credits.

Other expense for the second quarter 2012 increased $1.1 million compared to second quarter 2011 primarily due to a $1.1 million reduction in the reserve for unfunded commitments in the prior year period. The determination of the reserve for unfunded commitments is computed using a methodology similar to that used to determine the general allocation component of the allowance for loan losses and is based on a model which uses recent commitment utilization patterns as a method of predicting future usage across the portfolio.

Six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to six months ended June 30, 2011

Non-interest expense increased $13.1 million, or 9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation expense, net foreclosed property expense and provision for unfunded commitments, offset by lower insurance expense.

Compensation expense increased overall by $7.7 million, or 10%, from the prior year period. Salary and wages were up 2% largely due to annual compensation adjustments, as well as an increase of headcount since June 2011. Share-based payment costs increased $2.0 million primarily due to over four months of expense recognized for stock-based awards issued in late February 2012 which, as discussed above, were larger in aggregate than the prior year due to the expansion of the annual incentive compensation deferral program in 2012 and adjustment to forfeiture estimates during the period. Incentive compensation, retirement costs and other employee benefits were up by $4.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, principally due to higher incentive compensation expense accruals related to the Company’s performance against stated goals, and higher commission-based pay linked-to fee-based revenues such as mortgage banking and capital markets, both of which had significantly higher revenues for the 2012 year to date period than the prior year period as presented in Table 5.

Technology and related costs increased for the six months ended June 30, 2012, by $1.2 million, or 22%, compared to the prior year period and was primarily due to investments in data networking to provide greater bandwidth and improve overall service levels, as well as higher volumes in transaction based data processing fees for client-based services (loans, deposits and wires).

Marketing expense increased $775,000, or 17%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the prior year period and was largely due to advertising costs associated with our new advertising program to raise our corporate profile in 2012 as well as higher client development costs.

Professional services which include fees paid for legal, accounting, and consulting services, decreased $442,000, or 10%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from the prior year period with lower corporate legal fees and reduced consultancy services driving the decline.

Net foreclosed property expenses increased $6.3 million, or 46%, compared to the prior year period. The increase in net foreclosed property expenses is primarily due to higher valuation write-downs which totaled $13.7 million for six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $10.2 million for the prior year period and was largely associated with land parcels and higher property taxes and general OREO expense to maintain the properties prior to sale during the current year period as compared to the prior year period. Also impacting net foreclosed property expense was net loss on sale of OREO which increased $1.1 million compared to the first half of 2011, mostly due to gains on sale of OREO recorded in the comparable 2011 period. Net foreclosed property expense may remain elevated and fluctuate as we determine appropriate asset resolution strategies each period. Refer to the “Foreclosed Real Estate” discussion in the “Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for more information regarding our OREO portfolio and valuation process.

Insurance costs decreased $3.9 million, or 31%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year period and was primarily due to lower deposit insurance assessments as a result of the change in FDIC insurance methodology that became effective in April 2011, including clarifying guidance provided in third quarter 2011 by the FDIC on certain elements in the model. The new assessment regulations modified the assessment base from one based on domestic deposits to a risk assessed balance sheet model.

Loan and collection expense decreased $725,000, or 11%, for six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year period as activity is decreasing in conjunction with the overall decrease in problem loans, which was partially offset by costs associated with higher mortgage application volumes in connection with our performing loan activities.

Other expenses increased $2.2 million, or 40%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year period largely due to a $933,000 provision for unfunded commitments in the current year period, along with a $1.1 million reduction of the reserve for unfunded commitments in the prior year period.

Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes includes both federal and state income tax expense. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we recorded an income tax provision of $13.2 million on pre-tax income of $30.7 million (equal to a 43.0% effective tax rate) compared to an income tax provision of $6.3 million on pre-tax income of $15.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (equal to a 41.2% effective tax rate).

Table of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, income tax expense totaled $22.9 million on pre-tax income of $54.6 million (equal to a 41.9% effective tax rate) compared to an income tax provision of $8.6 million on pre-tax income of $28.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 (equal to a 30.1% effective tax rate).

Our effective income tax rate in the 2012 and 2011 periods varied from the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% principally due to state income taxes, the effects of tax-exempt earnings from municipal securities and bank-owned life insurance, certain non-deductible compensation (due to TARP limitations on deductions) and business expenses, and tax credits. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012, our effective tax rate was also negatively impacted by changes in state effective tax rates and charges relating to vesting and expiration of equity awards, offset in part by the recognition of tax benefits relating to previously uncertain tax positions.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the effective tax rate was negatively impacted by changes in effective state tax rates and the dissolution of the Bank’s investment subsidiary. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the effective tax rate was impacted by a $2.8 million tax benefit associated with the repricing of our deferred tax asset due to a change in the Illinois corporate income tax rate that became effective during the first quarter of 2011.

Net deferred tax assets totaled $97.0 million at June 30, 2012. We have concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and no valuation allowance was recorded. This conclusion was based in part on the fact that the Company was not in a cumulative book loss position for financial statement purposes at June 30, 2012, measured on a trailing three-year basis. In addition, we considered the Company’s recent earnings history, on both a book and tax basis, and our outlook for earnings and taxable income in future periods.

At June 30, 2012, we had approximately $14 million of deferred tax assets that relate to equity compensation awards, including both unexercised stock options and unvested restricted shares. In both cases, the deferred tax assets may not be fully realized in future periods primarily due to stock price valuation. Currently, most of our stock options are “out of the money” with an exercise price above our current stock price. Depending in part on changes in our stock price, we could incur tax charges at the expiration date of the options or prior to that time if employees terminate and “out-of-the money” options expire, or in certain instances, when employees exercise options. In the case of restricted shares, the tax benefits will not be fully realized if the fair market value of the awards on the vesting/release date is less than the value of the awards on the grant date.

In such circumstances where there is a “shortfall” in tax benefits on the exercise, vesting or expiration of an equity award, such “shortfall” amounts are charged to stockholders’ equity if there is a sufficient level of “excess” tax benefits accumulated from prior years. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we charged $1.3 million of such shortfall tax benefits to income tax expense as a result of equity award transactions during the period. This resulted in an increase in the effective tax rate for the six-month period of approximately two percentage points. Based on our current stock price level, scheduled vesting of restricted shares and anticipated option expirations, we expect to incur additional “shortfall” tax charges throughout 2012 which will put upward pressure on our effective income tax rate. The amount of such “shortfall” charges in 2012 and in future periods is dependent on changes in our stock price as well as the impact of employee terminations, option exercise decisions and other factors.

For calendar year 2012, we currently expect the effective tax rate to be in the range of 41-42%, although a number of factors will continue to influence that estimate, including share price valuation and its influence on the tax benefits related to stock compensation.

Operating Segments Results

We have three primary business segments: Banking, Trust and Investments, and Holding Company Activities.

Banking

The profitability of our Banking segment is dependent on net interest income, provision for loan losses, non-interest income and non-interest expense. The net income for the Banking segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 was $25.3 million, an increase of $9.5 million from net income of $15.8 million for the prior year period. The increase in net income resulted primarily from a $14.1 million decrease in the provision for loan and covered loan losses. Also contributing to net income for the period was an increase of $4.9 million in net interest income and $5.1 million in non-interest income, with increases in mortgage banking, capital markets product income, treasury management, and loan and credit-related fees contributing to the year-over-year growth. Net income for the period was offset by an increase of $9.4 million in non-interest expense due primarily to higher compensation expense and continued elevated net foreclosed property expense.

Table of Contents

Total loans for the Banking segment increased to $9.4 billion at June 30, 2012 compared to $9.0 billion at December 31, 2011. Total deposits increased from December 31, 2011 levels of $10.5 billion to $10.9 billion at June 30, 2012.

Trust and Investments

The Trust and Investments segment includes investment management, investment advisory, personal trust and estate administration, custodial and escrow, retirement account administration, and brokerage services. Lodestar Investment Counsel, LLC (“Lodestar”), an investment management firm and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, is included in our Trust and Investments segment.

Trust and Investments net income of $346,000 for second quarter 2012 increased 25% from the prior year period of $276,000. Although net interest income was relatively stable, we experienced a decline in both fee revenue and non-interest expense as expected due to the previously disclosed departure of two relationship managers in connection with recent organizational changes in our investment management business as part of a strategic repositioning. In addition, the second quarter 2011 benefited from fees associated with the administration of a large estate. AUMA was $4.7 billion as of June 30, 2012, compared to $4.3 billion as of December 31, 2011, and included the addition of $474.2 million in new custody assets as a result of expanded product offerings. Refer to the Trust and Investments revenue discussion within the non-interest income section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis for further details regarding custody assets and impact on fee income.

Holding Company Activities

The Holding Company Activities segment consists of parent company-only activity and intersegment eliminations. The Holding Company’s most significant asset is its investment in its bank subsidiary. Undistributed earnings relating to this investment are not included in the Holding Company financial results. Holding Company financial results are represented primarily by interest expense on borrowings and operating expenses. Recurring operating expenses consist primarily of share-based compensation and professional fees. The Holding Company Activities segment reported a net loss of $8.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $7.1 million for the prior year period. Exclusive of the $1.7 million reduced tax benefit for the comparative period, net loss of $10.6 million for second quarter 2012 was reduced $731,000 from a net loss of $11.3 million for the prior year period. The reduced loss is primarily due to lower share-based compensation of $662,000 and a decline in professional fees of $283,000, partially offset by an increase in salary and wages of $347,000.

At June 30, 2012, the Holding Company had $116.6 million in cash on-hand compared to $149.7 million at December 31, 2011. Annual cash needs of the Holding Company approximate $35 to $40 million and include debt service payments, dividend payable on both our common and preferred stock and general operating expenses. In addition to these cash needs, from time to time the Holding Company’s cash may be impacted by the timing of intercompany cash settlement of tax payments, as was the case during the first six months of 2012 where the Holding Company had net cash outflows of approximately $12.0 million. At July 31, 2012, cash on hand at the Holding Company totaled $140.8 million reflecting the receipt of intercompany tax payments from the Bank.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Investment Portfolio Management

We manage our investment portfolio to maximize the return on invested funds within acceptable risk guidelines, to meet pledging and liquidity requirements, and to adjust balance sheet interest rate sensitivity to attempt to serve as some protection of net interest income levels against the impact of changes in interest rates.

We may adjust the size and composition of our securities portfolio according to a number of factors, including expected liquidity needs, the current and forecasted interest rate environment, our actual and anticipated balance sheet growth rate, the relative value of various segments of the securities markets, and the broader economic and regulatory environment.

Investments are comprised of debt securities and non-marketable equity investments. Our debt securities portfolio is primarily comprised of residential and commercial mortgage-backed pools, collateralized mortgage obligations, U.S. Treasury securities and state and municipal bonds.

 

69


Table of Contents

Debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value and may be sold as part of our asset/liability management strategy in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs or significant prepayment risk. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities represent the difference between the aggregated cost and fair value of the portfolio and are reported, on an after-tax basis, as a separate component of equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). This balance sheet component will fluctuate as current market interest rates and conditions change, which changes affect the aggregate fair value of the portfolio. In periods of significant market volatility we may experience significant changes in AOCI. AOCI is not included in the calculation of regulatory capital.

Debt securities that are classified as held-to-maturity are securities we have the ability and intent to hold until maturity and are accounted for using historical cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

Non-marketable equity investments include Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock and various other equity securities. At June 30, 2012 our investment in FHLB stock was $43.5 million, compared to $40.7 million at December 31, 2011. FHLB stock holdings are necessary to maintain FHLB advances and availability. In April 2012, we purchased an additional $3.1 million in FHLB stock in compliance with membership requirements. Also included in non-marketable equity investments are certain interests we have in investment funds that make qualifying investments for purposes of supporting our community reinvestment initiatives. Such investments had a carrying amount of $3.9 million at June 30, 2012.

We do not own any Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae preferred stock or subordinated debt obligations, bank trust preferred securities, or any sub-prime mortgage-backed securities.

As of June 30, 2012, our securities portfolio totaled $2.4 billion, an increase from $2.3 billion at December 31, 2011. Since year end 2011, purchases of securities totaled $306.0 million with $71.0 million in the available-for sale-portfolio, $231.3 million in the held-to-maturity portfolio and the remaining $3.7 million in nonmarketable equity securities. The current year purchases in the investment portfolio primarily represented the reinvestment of proceeds from sales, maturities and paydowns in largely similar agency guaranteed residential mortgage-backed securities as well as purchases of commercial agency guaranteed mortgage-backed securities and state and municipal securities.

In conjunction with ongoing portfolio management and rebalancing activities, we sold $746,000 in book value of tax-exempt municipal securities during the six months ended June 20, 2012, resulting in a net securities gain of $66,000. In addition, we recognized $251,000 in losses on CRA investments and other non-marketable securities during the second quarter 2012.

Investments in collateralized mortgage obligations and residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities comprise 86% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2012. All of the mortgage securities are backed by U.S. Government agencies or issued by U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises. All mortgage securities are composed of fixed-rate, fully-amortizing collateral with final maturities of 30 years or less.

Investments in debt instruments of state and local municipalities comprised 8% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2012. This type of security has historically experienced very low default rates and provided a predictable cash flow since it generally is not subject to significant prepayment. Insurance companies regularly provide credit enhancement to improve the credit rating and liquidity of a municipal bond issuance. Management considers the credit enhancement and underlying municipality credit rating when evaluating a purchase or sale decision.

At June 30, 2012, our reported equity reflected unrealized net securities gains on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, of $46.4 million, approximating levels at December 31, 2011.

The following table presents the maturities of the different types of investments that we owned at June 30, 2012, and the corresponding interest rates.

LOAN PORTFOLIO AND CREDIT QUALITY (excluding covered assets)

Portfolio Composition

The following discussion of our loan portfolio and credit quality excludes covered assets. Covered assets represent assets acquired through an FDIC-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss share agreement and are presented separately on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. For additional discussion of covered assets, refer to Note 6 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” and the “Covered Assets” section presented later in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Total loans, excluding covered assets, increased $427.7 million to $9.4 billion as of June 30, 2012 from $9.0 billion at December 31, 2011 driven by growth in the commercial loan portfolio, which increased $584.8 million from year end 2011. During the first six months of 2012, we funded approximately $800 million of loans to new clients while revolving line usage remained flat. This growth was muted by our problem loan disposition activities and client departures. In addition, our loan growth was constrained due to the exiting of certain non-strategic client relationships as part of our ongoing efforts to concentrate on client relationships that meet certain minimum return on capital standards we have established. As a result of the current year loan growth, commercial loans (including commercial owner-occupied CRE loans) increased as a proportion of total loans to 63% at June 30, 2012 from 59% at December 31, 2011.

In line with our ongoing strategy to grow middle market commercial business, we may continue to seek to exit accounts that no longer align strategically or do not meet return or other performance hurdles.

The following table presents the composition of our loan portfolio at the dates shown.

Within our commercial lending business, we have a specialized niche in the “assisted living,” nursing and residential care segment of the healthcare industry. At June 30, 2012, 22% of the commercial loan portfolio had been extended primarily to operators in this segment to finance the working capital needs and cost of facilities providing such services. These loans tend to be larger extensions of credit and are primarily to for-profit businesses. To date, this portfolio segment has experienced minimal defaults and losses.

The collateral underlying our commercial real estate portfolio is principally located in and around our core markets and is significantly concentrated in the Chicago metropolitan area.

Of the combined commercial real estate and construction portfolios, the single largest category at June 30, 2012 was office real estate, which represented 22% of the combined portfolios. Our total exposure to land loans in the combined portfolios totaled $278.9 million at June 30, 2012 and $254.0 million at December 31, 2011. We manage our exposure to land to an appropriate level of the overall loan portfolio. As a percentage of the total commercial real estate and construction portfolios, land loans were 10% at June 30, 2012 and 9% at December 31, 2011.

Delinquent Loans, Special Mention and Potential Problem Loans and Nonperforming Assets

Loans are reported delinquent if the required principal and interest payments have not been received within 30 days of the date such payment is due. Delinquency can be driven by either failure of the borrower to make payments within the term of the loan or failure to make the final payment at maturity. The majority of our loans are not fully amortizing over the term. As a result, a sizeable final repayment is often required at maturity. If a borrower lacks refinancing options or the ability to pay, the loan may become delinquent in connection with its maturity. Of total commercial, commercial real estate, and construction loans outstanding at June 30, 2012, $699.2 million are scheduled to mature in the third quarter of 2012, almost all of which were performing.

Loans considered special mention are performing in accordance with the contractual terms but demonstrate potential weakness that if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position and/or the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity, or other credit concerns.

Potential problem loans, like special mention, are loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern (greater than that of special mention loans) about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. These loans continue to accrue interest but the ultimate collection of these loans is questionable due to the same conditions that characterize a special mention credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not resolved. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans and require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming.

Special mention and potential problem loans as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are presented in Tables 14 and 19.

Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and real estate that has been acquired primarily through foreclosure proceedings and are awaiting disposition and are presented in Table 14. Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans, including restructured loans that remain on nonaccrual. We specifically exclude certain restructured loans that accrue interest

 

75


Table of Contents

from our definition of nonperforming loans if the borrower has demonstrated the ability to meet the new terms of the restructuring as evidenced by a minimum of at least six months of performance in compliance with the restructured terms or if the borrower’s performance prior to the restructuring or other significant events at the time of the restructuring supports returning or maintaining the loan on accrual status. All loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest payments become 90 days past due or earlier if management deems the collectability of the principal or interest to be in question rather than waiting until the loans become 90 days past due. When interest accruals are discontinued, accrued but uncollected interest is reversed reducing interest income. Subsequent receipts on nonaccrual loans are recorded in the financial statements as a reduction of principal, and interest income is only recorded on a cash basis after principal recovery is reasonably assured. Classification of a loan as nonaccrual does not necessarily preclude the ultimate collection of loan principal and/or interest. Nonperforming loans are presented in Tables 14, 15, 16, and 19.

Foreclosed assets represent property acquired as the result of borrower defaults on loans secured by a mortgage on real property. Foreclosed assets are recorded at the lesser of current carrying value or estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs at the time of foreclosure. Write-downs occurring at foreclosure are charged against the allowance for loan losses. On a periodic basis, the carrying values of these properties are adjusted based upon new appraisals and/or market indications. Write-downs are recorded for subsequent declines in net realizable value and are included in non-interest expense along with other expenses related to maintaining the properties. Additional information on our OREO assets is presented in Tables 20 through 22.

As part of our ongoing risk management practices and in certain circumstances, we may extend or modify the terms of a loan to maximize the collection of amounts due when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. The modification may consist of reduction in interest rate, extension of the maturity date, reduction in the principal balance, or other action intended to minimize potential losses that would otherwise not be considered in order to improve the chance of a more successful recovery on the loan. Such concessions as part of a modification are accounted for as TDRs. Restructured loans can involve loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual, or continuing on accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. We may utilize a multiple note structure as a workout alternative for certain loans. The multiple note structure typically bifurcates a troubled loan into two separate notes, where the first note is reasonably assured of repayment and performance according to the modified terms, and the second note of the troubled loan that is not reasonably assured of repayment is charged-off. TDRs accrue interest as long as the borrower complies with the revised terms and conditions and has historically demonstrated repayment performance at a level commensurate with the modified terms; otherwise, the restructured loan will be classified as nonaccrual. The composition of our restructured loans accruing interest by loan category, current period activity and stratification is presented in Tables 14, 17 and 18.

Aside from the decision to restructure a loan, thereby increasing our outstanding TDRs, changes in the level of TDRs from period to period may be impacted by both favorable and unfavorable developments associated with the respective TDR. Favorable developments include payoffs at par, paydowns of principal earlier than expected and regular amortizing payments. In addition, certain TDRs may be subsequently re-underwritten as pass-rated credits, which is evidence that the borrower would no longer be considered “troubled” and, accordingly, the TDR classification is removed. Unfavorable developments include performance deterioration in the borrower’s operations, which can cause the loan’s classification to be changed to nonperforming and removed from the accruing TDR portfolio.

Nonperforming loans totaled $209.3 million at June 30, 2012, down 19% from $259.9 million at December 31, 2011. Nonperforming loan inflows, which is primarily composed of potential problem loans moving through the workout process (i.e., moving from potential problem to nonperforming status), showed a downward trend, totaling $57.7 million during the second quarter 2012, compared to $69.6 million for the first quarter 2012 and $67.5 million for the fourth quarter 2011. Inflows to nonperforming loans were more than offset by problem loan resolutions (paydowns, payoffs and return to accruing status), dispositions, charge-offs and transfers to OREO during the quarter. As shown in Table 16 which provides the nonperforming loan stratification by size, seven nonperforming loans in excess of $5.0 million comprised approximately half of our total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2012. Commercial real estate and construction loans were 57% of our total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2012, reflecting the continuing stress in the sector.

Total nonperforming assets declined 17% to $319.2 million at June 30, 2012 from $385.6 million at December 31, 2011, reflecting progress in improving the overall asset quality of the portfolio and reducing problem assets. Nonperforming assets were 2.47% of total assets at June 30, 2012, compared to 3.11% at December 31, 2011. During the first six months of 2012, total nonperforming loans declined by $50.5 million, or 19%, primarily due to disposition activity, charge-offs and movement of nonperforming loans to OREO. OREO decreased $15.9 million, or 13%, from December 31, 2011, due to sales of OREO with a net book value of $25.6 million and $13.7 million of valuation adjustments, principally on land parcels. Meaningful declines in OREO balances in the near term are unlikely as problem loans continue to progress through the workout process and disposition activity is limited to some degree by illiquidity of land, the Company’s largest OREO category. Refer to “Foreclosed Real Estate” below for further discussion on OREO.

Table of Contents

During the second quarter 2012, we executed a variety of resolution strategies which included a combination of asset sale dispositions and loan restructurings, reducing special mention, potential problem loan and non-performing assets. Disposition activity during the second quarter 2012 included the sale of $50.8 million in problem assets, including $35.4 million in nonperforming loans, $1.0 million in early stage problem loans and $14.4 million in OREO, at a 2% net incremental charge based on the carrying value net of specific reserves at the time of disposition. Our focused asset management activities have led to declines in the early stage problem loan categories; special mention and potential problem loans were down 17% from $327.8 million at March 31, 2012 to $272.1 million at June 30, 2012.

We have remained consistent and successful in our principal approach to disposing distressed assets, utilizing direct sales to end-users or other identified interest parties in particular assets and continue to source all dispositions opportunistically, limiting the use of brokered or pooled transactions. Our expectation is that dispositions will remain at meaningful levels in the near term as we continue to assess the market for the best disposition strategy and to maximize liquidation proceeds of the individual assets sold. We will also continue to use various other strategies mentioned above, including restructuring, that are consistent with our goal to maximize economic recovery on the asset.

TDRs totaled $97.7 million at June 30, 2012, decreasing $3.2 million from $100.9 million at December 31, 2011. Although TDRs decreased from year end 2011 levels, there was $49.5 million of new TDRs during the first six months of 2012 which were offset by $19.3 million in paydowns and payoffs and $32.4 million of TDRs moving to a nonperforming loan status. Of the $49.5 million in new TDRs during the first six months of 2012, 66% were commercial loans restructured to extend the maturity date and related to five borrowers. Of the TDRs moving to nonperforming status, $16.6 million related to two borrowers and were restructured in the prior twelve months, one of which totaled $16.5 million. Also, since year end 2011, $1.1 million in loans that were previously classified as TDRs were subsequently re-underwritten as pass-rated credits and removed from the TDR portfolio.

Because the loan portfolio contains loans that may be larger in size in order to accommodate the financing needs of some of our borrowers, the movement of one or more of these loans to a different performance classification can create volatility in our credit quality metrics, including TDR loans as discussed above.

As problem loan indicators and problem asset resolution continued to trend positively, we expect further improvement in the credit quality of the portfolio. However, because many of our potential problem loans are commercial real estate-related, a currently highly-stressed loan sector, and because the potential problem loan population contains some larger-sized credits, our total nonperforming loans and nonperforming inflows may fluctuate over the next several quarters as we continue to execute remediation plans and work through the credit cycle. In addition, credit quality trends may also be impacted by the uncertainty in global economic conditions and market turmoil that could disrupt workout plans, adversely affect clients, or negatively impact collateral valuations. Further, net nonperforming asset levels and levels of restructured loans could fluctuate depending on the mix and timing of dispositions or other remediation actions. Our efforts to continue to dispose of nonperforming and problem assets in future quarters may be impacted by a number of factors, including but not limited to, the pace and timing of the overall recovery of the economy, activity levels in the real estate market and real estate inventory coming into the market for sale. OREO is likely to remain elevated as nonperforming commercial real estate loans continue to move through the collection process.

Foreclosed real estate

OREO is recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan at the time of acquisition or the fair value, determined on the basis of current appraisals, comparable sales, and other estimates of value obtained principally from independent sources, adjusted for estimated selling costs. The decision to foreclose on real property collateral is based on a number of factors, including but not limited to: our determination of the probable success of further collection from the borrower, location of the property, borrower attention to the property’s maintenance and condition and other factors unique to the situation and asset. In all cases, the decision to foreclose represents management’s judgment that ownership of the property will likely result in the best repayment and collection potential on the nonperforming exposure. Updated appraisals on OREO are typically obtained every twelve months and evaluated internally at least every six months. In addition, both property-specific and market-specific factors as well as collateral type factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments.

OREO totaled $109.8 million at June 30, 2012, down from $125.7 million at December 31, 2011 with inflows into OREO more than offset by sales and a higher level of valuation adjustments during the period. As a result of our regular review of scheduled annual re-appraisal reports on certain OREO during second quarter 2012, it was determined that there was further degradation on land collateral values overall, prompting management to consider this new information in the course of its interim internal assessment on the other land parcels in its OREO portfolio as of June 30, 2012. Land parcel property values continue to decline due to limited market interest from buyers and lower observable sales data used by appraisers to value the properties. For the second quarter 2012, valuation adjustments on OREO were $9.2 million, up $3.7 million from the prior year quarter, and with $6.1 million as a result of lower values related to land parcels and other non-income producing property. At June 30, 2012, land parcels represented 39%, or $43.4 million of total OREO with over 50% of this OREO located in Illinois.

During the second quarter 2012, we sold OREO which primarily consisted of single family homes, office/industrial properties, and multi-family properties, with a net book value of $14.4 million at a loss of $906,000, or 6% of the net book value. Given current economic conditions and the difficult real estate market, the time required to sell these properties in an orderly fashion has increased. OREO is likely to remain elevated as nonperforming commercial real estate loans continue to move through the collection process. Losses as a percent of net book value on sales of OREO property may fluctuate or increase in future quarters as we strategically target individual or larger group dispositions of properties based on individual property characteristics and relevant market factors as part of our overall strategy of maximizing recovery value from the OREO book.

Table 20 presents a rollforward of OREO for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Table 21 presents the composition of OREO properties at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and Table 22 presents OREO property by geographic location at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Credit Quality Management and Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is assessed quarterly and represents an accounting estimate of probable losses in the portfolio at each balance sheet date based on a review of available and relevant information at that time. The allowance is not a prediction of our actual credit losses going forward. The allowance contains provisions for probable losses that have been identified relating to specific borrowing relationships that are considered to be impaired (the “specific component” of the allowance), as well as probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio that are not specifically identified (the “general allocated component” of the allowance), which is determined using a methodology that is a function of quantitative and qualitative factors and management judgment applied to defined segments of our loan portfolio.

Table of Contents

The specific component of the allowance relates to impaired loans. Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual loans (which include nonaccrual TDRs) and loans classified as accruing TDRs. A loan is considered nonaccrual when, based on current information and events, management believes that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans that are over 90 days past due in principal or interest are by definition considered “impaired” and placed on nonaccrual status. Management may also place some loans on nonaccrual status before they are 90 days past due if they meet the above definition of “impaired.” Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the loan’s observable fair value, the fair value of the underlying collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral-dependent, or the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Impaired loans exceeding $500,000 are evaluated individually while smaller loans are evaluated as pools using historical loss experience as well as management’s loss expectations for the respective asset class and product type. If the estimated fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net of deferred loan fees and costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized by creating a specific reserve as a component of the allowance for loan losses. The recognition of any reserve required on new impaired loans is recorded in the same quarter in which the transfer of the loan to nonaccrual status occurred. All impaired loans are reviewed quarterly for any changes that would affect the specific reserve. Any impaired loan in which a determination has been made that the economic value is permanently reduced is charged-off against the allowance for loan losses to reflect its current economic value in the period in which the determination has been made.

When collateral-dependent loans are determined to be impaired, updated appraisals for loans in excess of $500,000 are typically obtained every twelve months and evaluated internally by our appraisal department at least every six months. Additional diligence procedures are conducted on any appraisal with a value in excess of $250,000 but less than $500,000 upon request only and a technical review is required on appraisals with a value in excess of $1.0 million. In addition to the appraisal, both borrower and market-specific factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments. Appraisals are conducted by third-party independent appraisers under internal direction and engagement. Appraisals are either reviewed internally by our appraisal department or are sent to an outside firm if appropriate. Both levels of review involve a scope appropriate for the complexity and risk associated with the loan and its collateral. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. To validate the reasonableness of the appraisals obtained, we may consider many factors, including a comparison of the appraised value to the actual sales price of similar properties, relevant comparable sale price listings, broker opinions, and local or regional real estate valuation and sales data.

As of June 30, 2012, the average appraisal age used in the impaired loan valuation process was 174 days. The amount of impaired assets which, by policy, requires an independent appraisal, but does not have a current external appraisal at June 30, 2012 due to the timing of the receipt of the appraisal is not material to the overall reserve. In situations such as this, we establish a probable impairment reserve for the account based on our experience in the related asset class and type.

The general allocated component of the allowance is determined using a methodology that is a function of quantitative and qualitative factors applied to segments of our loan portfolio. The methodology takes into account at a product level the originating line of business (transformational or legacy), vintage (year of origination), the risk rating migration of the loan, and historical default and loss history of similar products. Using this information, the methodology produces a range of possible reserve amounts by product type. We consider the appropriate balance of the general allocated component of the reserve within these ranges based on a variety of internal and external quantitative and qualitative factors to reflect data or timeframes not captured by the model as well as market and economic data and management judgment. We consider relevant factors related to individual product types and will also consider, when appropriate, changes in lending practices, changes in business or economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of loans, changes in staffing or management, changes in the quality of our results from loan reviews, changes in collateral values, concentration risks, and other external factors such as legal or regulatory matters relevant to management’s assessment of required reserve levels. In certain instances, these additional factors and judgments may lead to management’s conclusion that the appropriate level of the reserve is outside the range determined through the framework with respect to a given product type.

In our evaluation of the quantitatively-determined range and the adequacy of the allowance at June 30, 2012, we considered a number of factors for each product that included, but were not limited to, the following: for the commercial portfolio, the pace of growth in the commercial loan sector, the existence of larger individual credits and specialized industry concentrations, the average age of the loans in the portfolio, comparison of our default rates to overall US industry averages at industry subsets, default emergence from recent vintage years compared to earlier, more stressed periods, results of “back testing” of model results vs. actual recent charge off history, and general macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP, employment trends and manufacturing activity, which still are susceptible to sustainability risk and possible negative ramifications from the European debt crisis and other factors; for the commercial real estate portfolio, the potential impact of general commercial real estate trends, particularly occupancy and leasing rate trends, charge-off severity, default likelihood in our book vs. the general US averages, default emergence from recent vintage years compared to earlier, more stressed

periods, results of “back testing” of model results vs. recent charge off history, collateral value changes and the impact that a negative general macroeconomic condition would have on this sector; for the construction portfolio, construction employment, industry experience on construction loan losses, and construction spending rates; and for the residential, home equity, and personal portfolios, home price indices and sales volume, vacancy rates, delinquency rates, and general economic conditions and interest rate trends which impact these products.

The Bank has limited exposure with a related junior collateral position in any product type with the exception of home equity lines of credit (“HELOCs”). This product is by definition usually secured in the junior position to the first mortgage on the related property. The Bank evaluates the allowance for loan losses for HELOCs as one of our six primary, segregated product types and considers the potential impact of the junior security position (as opposed to our generally senior position in all other product types) in setting final allocated reserve amounts for this product. Default rates on our HELOC portfolio have historically been below industry averages and our allowance reflects the performance and loss history unique to our portfolio. Management also considers the amount and characteristics of the accruing TDRs removed from the general allocation reserve formulas in establishing final reserve requirements.

The establishment of the allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment and includes an inherent level of imprecision given the difficulty of identifying all the factors impacting loan repayment and the timing of when losses actually occur. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond our control, including, but not limited to, client performance, the economy, changes in interest rates and property values, and the interpretation by regulatory authorities of loan classifications.

Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately and consider this process to be an important credit management tool, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for the entire loan portfolio.

Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and reviews the allowance for loan losses and the underlying methodology with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors quarterly. As of June 30, 2012, management concluded the allowance for loan losses was adequate (i.e., sufficient to absorb losses that are inherent in the portfolio at that date, including those loans not yet identifiable).

As an integral part of their examination process, various federal and state regulatory agencies also review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require that certain loan balances be classified differently or charged off when their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

The accounting policies underlying the establishment and maintenance of the allowance for loan losses through provisions charged to operating expense are discussed in Note 1 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Net charge-offs declined to $26.9 million for the second quarter 2012, from $43.7 million for the year ago period and $35.4 million for the first quarter 2012. Included in net charge-offs for the current quarter was $6.9 million of recoveries, reflecting a higher level compared to an average of $3.1 million for the four prior quarters. Recoveries are credited to the allowance and thus result in a positive impact on the required calculated provision expense. Commercial real estate comprised 51% of total net charge-offs in the second quarter 2012, reflecting the challenging market conditions associated with this loan type. The increase in personal loan charge-offs during the current quarter was largely attributable to a single credit and not indicative of a trend.

The allowance for loan losses declined $17.3 million to $174.3 million at June 30, 2012 from $191.6 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in the allowance is the result of lower reserve requirements on a declining level of impaired loans which require a specific reserve; an improved credit risk profile for the performing portfolio as reflected in the reduced levels of special mention and potential problem loans; and improving loan portfolio mix and vintage, with higher risk profile legacy

loans shrinking as a percent of the overall loan portfolio. As a result of these factors, the provision for loan losses for the quarter declined to $17.4 million compared to $27.6 million for the prior quarter and $31.7 million for second quarter 2011. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.85% at June 30, 2012, down from 2.13% as of December 31, 2011. The loan loss allowance as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 83% compared to the December 31, 2011 level of 74%.

Under our methodology, the allowance for loan losses is comprised of the following components:

General Allocated Component of the Allowance

The general allocated component of the allowance decreased by $5.4 million during the first six months of 2012, from $121.7 million at December 31, 2011 to $116.2 million at June 30, 2012. The reduction in the general allocated reserve was primarily influenced by the improved risk profile of the performing portfolio during the period, as exposure in special mention and potential problem loans declined, due in part to the sale of these problem credits. In addition, lower loss rates are being applied to a larger proportion of the total loan portfolio. As the portfolio is becoming more weighted in transformational and commercial loans, where our historical credit performance has been better, and less weighted in legacy and commercial real estate loans, where historical performance has been weaker. This changing mix has resulted in lower loss rates applied to a larger portion of the total loan portfolio which positively impacts reserve requirements. The continuing improvement in the asset quality position of the loan portfolio supports a lower general reserve.

The general allocated reserve for our combined commercial real estate and construction portfolios, which represented 50% of our total general allocated reserve at June 30, 2012, declined $7.3 million, or 11%, from December 31, 2011. The decrease in this allocation is primarily due to a reduction in construction loan balances and improvement in certain sectors of commercial real estate. The combined coverage ratio (general allocated reserve as a percentage of loans) of the general allocated reserve for these portfolios was 2.0% at June 30, 2012 and 2.1% at December 31, 2011.

Specific Component of the Allowance

At June 30, 2012, the specific component of the allowance decreased by $11.8 million to $58.1 million from $69.9 million at December 31, 2011. The specific reserve requirements are the summation of individual reserves analyzed on an account by account basis at the balance sheet date on impaired loans, as well as changes to collateral values. Our impaired loans are primarily collateral-dependent with such loans totaling $215.4 million of the total $307.0 million in impaired loans at June 30, 2012. Both the level of nonperforming loans and the related reserves associated with our nonperforming loans declined in second quarter 2012.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, we maintain a reserve for unfunded commitments at a level we believe to be sufficient to absorb estimated probable losses related to unfunded credit facilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, our reserve for unfunded commitments increased $933,000 from December 31, 2011 to $8.2 million as a result of an increase in certain product level loss factors, larger unfunded commitment levels and an increase in the likelihood of certain product categories to draw on unused lines. Net adjustments to the reserve for unfunded commitments are included in other non-interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Unfunded commitments, excluding covered assets, totaled $4.6 billion and $3.8 billion at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

COVERED ASSETS

Covered assets represent purchased loans and foreclosed loan collateral covered under a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC as a result of the 2009 FDIC-assisted acquisition of the former Founders Bank from the FDIC. Under the loss share agreement, the FDIC generally will assume 80% of the first $173 million of credit losses and 95% of the credit losses in excess of $173 million, in both cases relating to assets existing at the date of acquisition.

The carrying amounts of covered assets are presented in the following table:

Total covered assets decreased by $62.0 million, or 20%, from $306.8 million at December 31, 2011 to $244.8 million at June 30, 2012. The reduction is primarily attributable to $29.9 million in principal paydowns, net of advances, as well as the resulting impact of such on the evaluation of expected cash flows and discount accretion levels. In addition, the estimated loss reimbursement by the FDIC (“the FDIC indemnification receivable”) further contributed to the reduction as a result of loss claims paid by the FDIC. The allowance for covered loan losses decreased by $4.2 million to $21.7 million at June 30, 2012 from $25.9 million at December 31, 2011, reflecting further credit deterioration in expected cash flows on certain pools of covered loans since the date of acquisition. Of the total decrease in the allowance for covered loan losses, 80% was offset through the FDIC indemnification receivable and the remaining 20% representing the non-reimbursable portion of the loss share agreement recognized as a charge to provision for loan and covered loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2012, the FDIC had reimbursed the Company $100.0 million in losses under the loss share agreement.

The following table presents covered loan delinquencies and nonperforming covered assets as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and excludes purchased impaired loans which are accounted for on a pool basis. Since each purchased impaired pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows, the past due status of the pools, or that of individual loans within the pools, is not meaningful. Because we are recognizing interest income on each pool of such loans, they are all considered to be performing. Covered assets are excluded from the asset quality presentation of our originated loan portfolio, given the loss share indemnification from the FDIC.

FUNDING AND LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

We have implemented various policies to manage our liquidity position in order to meet our cash flow requirements and maintain sufficient capacity to meet our clients’ needs and accommodate fluctuations in asset and liability levels due to changes in our business operations as well as unanticipated events. We also have in place contingency funding plans designed to allow us to operate through a period of stress when access to normal sources of funding may be constrained. As part of our asset/liability management strategy, we utilize a variety of funding sources in an effort to optimize the balance of duration risk, cost, liquidity risk and contingency planning.

The Bank’s principal sources of funds are client deposits, including large institutional deposits, broker deposits, wholesale borrowings, and cash from operations. The Bank’s principal uses of funds include funding growth in the core asset portfolios, including loans, and to a lesser extent, our investment portfolio, which is used primarily to manage interest rate and liquidity risk. The primary sources of funding for the holding company include dividends when received from its bank subsidiary, intercompany tax reimbursements from the Bank, and proceeds from the issuance of senior, subordinated and convertible debt, as well as equity. Primary uses of funds for the parent company, which approximates $35 million annually, include interest paid to our debt holders, general operating costs for corporate activities and dividends paid to stockholders (common and preferred). The parent company generally retains two years’ funding coverage in net liquid assets on its balance sheet. Net liquid assets at the parent company totaled $116.6 million at June 30, 2012 and $149.7 million at December 31, 2011.

We consider client deposits our core funding source. At June 30, 2012, 77% of our total assets were funded by client deposits, compared to 84% at December 31, 2011. We define client deposits as all deposits other than traditional brokered deposits and non-client CDARS® (as described in the footnotes to Table 27 below). While we expect overall liquidity in the banking system to remain high until economic recovery and market factors improve, the level of our client deposits may fluctuate significantly based on client needs, seasonality and other economic or market factors. If client deposits fluctuate due to any of these factors, we will utilize other external sources of liquidity, including wholesale funding.

Given the commercial focus of our core business strategy, a majority of our deposit base is comprised of corporate accounts which are typically larger than retail accounts. We have built a suite of deposit and cash management products and services that support our efforts to attract and retain corporate client accounts. Sixteen client relationships, each with greater than $75 million in deposits, accounted for $2.5 billion, or 23% of total deposits at June 30, 2012. In comparison, at December 31, 2011, 13 client relationships, each with greater than $75 million in deposits, accounted for $2.2 billion, or 21% of total deposits. At both periods, a majority of the deposits greater than $75 million were from financial services-related businesses, including omnibus accounts from broker-dealer and mortgage companies representing underlying accounts of their customers that may be eligible for pass-through deposit insurance limits. Twenty-four client relationships, each with greater than $50 million in deposits, accounted for $2.9 billion, or 27% or total deposits at June 30, 2012. In comparison, at December 31, 2011, 30 client relationships, each with greater than $50 million in deposits, accounted for $3.2 billion, or 31% of total deposits. We take deposit concentration risk into account in managing our liquid asset levels. Liquid assets refer to cash on hand, federal funds sold and securities. Net liquid assets represent the sum of the liquid asset categories less the amount of assets pledged to secure public funds and certain deposits that require collateral. Net liquid assets at the Bank were $1.5 billion at June 30, 2012 and $1.6 billion at December 31, 2011. We maintain liquidity at levels we believe sufficient to meet anticipated client liquidity needs, fund anticipated loan growth, selectively purchase securities and investments and opportunistically pay down wholesale funds.

While we first look toward internally generated deposits as our funding source, we also utilize wholesale funding, including brokered deposits, as needed to enhance liquidity and to fund asset growth. Brokered deposits are deposits that are sourced from external and unrelated financial institutions by a third party. Brokered deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. Our asset/liability management policy currently limits our use of brokered deposits, excluding client CDARS®, to levels no more than 25% of total deposits, and total brokered deposits to levels no more than 40% of total deposits. During the second quarter 2012, we increased our usage of traditional brokered deposits to supplement our funding needs. Brokered deposits exclusive of client CDARS® were 7% of total deposits at June 30, 2012, compared to less than 1% at December 31, 2011.

Our cash flows are comprised of three classifications: cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities, and cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities primarily include results of operations for the period, adjusted for items in net income that did not impact cash. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities was $78.4 million, a decrease of $45.7 million from the prior year period, which was primarily due to larger decreases in loans held-for-sale, other assets, and other liabilities in the prior year comparative period and somewhat offset by an $11.9 million increase in net income. Cash flows from investing activities reflect the impact of loans and investments acquired for our interest-earning asset portfolios and asset sales. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash used in investing activities was $490.4 million, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $208.1 million for the prior year period. This change in cash flows represents larger amounts of cash redeployed towards the funding of loans in the current period than the prior comparative period. Cash flows from financing activities include transactions and events whereby cash is obtained from depositors, creditors or investors. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $507.2 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $368.6 million for the prior year period. This change in cash flows represents the net proceeds of FHLB advances and the increased level of deposit additions in the current year period as compared to the prior year comparative period.

Deposits

Middle-market commercial client relationships from a diversified industry base in our markets are the primary source of our deposit base. Due to our middle-market commercial banking focused business model, our client deposit base provides access to larger deposit balances that result in a concentrated deposit base. The deposits are held in different deposit products such as noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits, CDARS® and traditional time deposits, savings and money market accounts.

The CDARS® deposit program is a deposit services arrangement that effectively achieves FDIC deposit insurance for jumbo deposit relationships. These deposits are classified as brokered deposits for regulatory deposit purposes; however, we classify certain of these deposits as client CDARS® due to the source being our client relationships and are, therefore, not traditional brokered deposits. We also participate in a non-client CDARS® program that is more like a traditional brokered deposit program.

Total deposits at June 30, 2012 increased by $341.7 million from year end 2011 as interest-bearing demand, brokered, and time deposits increased, partially offset by declines in noninterest-bearing deposits and money market accounts. Client deposits decreased by $360.0 million from December 31, 2011 and client deposits as a percentage of total deposits also decreased from 99% of deposits at December 31, 2011 to 93% at June 30, 2012. We anticipate the deposit mix to fluctuate in line with client needs and usage of liquidity. Noninterest-bearing deposits at June 30, 2012 were 27% of total deposits, a decrease from 31% at December 31, 2011. The decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits was partially attributable to higher year-end cash holdings by our clients being reduced to more normal levels as we moved through the first half of 2012. Money market accounts declined as accounts migrated to interest-bearing demand deposits.

Brokered deposits totaled $1.5 billion at June 30, 2012, increasing $668.5 million from December 31, 2011 due to an increased use of traditional brokered deposits and non-client CDARS® deposits to fund the balance sheet. We increased our use of brokered deposits during the second quarter 2012 as a funding source to reduce $300.0 million of our outstanding short-term borrowings with the FHLB in early July 2012. FHLB borrowings are a key funding source of the Company and are discussed in greater detail in the following “Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt” section of this document. Brokered deposits included $762.2 million in client-related CDARS®. Brokered deposits, excluding client CDARS®, increased by $701.7 million from the prior year end and were 7% of total deposits at June 30, 2012 compared to less than 1% at December 31, 2011. Brokered deposits fluctuate based upon the Bank’s general funding needs related to deposit, loans and other funding needs.

Public balances, denoting the funds held on account for municipalities and other public entities, are included as a part of our total deposits. We enter into specific agreements with certain public customers to pledge collateral, primarily securities, in support of the balances on account. These relationships may provide cross-sell opportunities with treasury management, as well as other business referral opportunities. At June 30, 2012, we had public funds on account totaling $918.6 million, of which approximately 24% were collateralized with securities. Quarter-to-quarter changes in balances are influenced by the tax collection activities of the various municipalities as well as the general level of interest rates.

Over the past several years in the generally low interest rate environment, our clients have tended to keep the maturities of their deposits short and short-term certificates of deposit have generally been renewed on terms and with maturities of similar duration. In the event that time deposits are not renewed, we expect to replace those deposits with traditional deposits, brokered deposits, or borrowed money sufficient to meet our funding needs.

Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt

Short-term borrowings, which at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, consisted solely of FHLB advances that mature in one year or less, increased by $179.0 million to $335.0 million from $156.0 million at year end 2011. At June 30, 2012, $300.0 million represented advances which matured and repaid in less than five days as the Company increased its use of FHLB advances for short-term funding needs. Of the remaining $35.0 million in outstanding short-term advances, $30.0 million will mature late in third quarter 2012. As of July 6, 2012, $300.00 million in FHLB advances were repaid. We may continue to use FHLB advances to meet our funding needs.

Our total availability of overnight federal fund borrowings is not a committed line of credit and is dependent upon lender availability.

(2) 

Includes federal term auction facilities. Subject to the availability of pledged collateral, our borrowing capacity changes each quarter.

Long-term debt, which is comprised of junior subordinated debentures, a subordinated debt facility and the long-term portion of FHLB advances, was $374.8 million at June 30, 2012 and $379.8 million at December 31, 2011. The $5.0 million reduction in long-term debt represents the reclassification of certain FHLB advances to short-term as its maturity approaches.

In addition to on-balance sheet funding and other liquid assets such as cash and investment securities, we maintain access to various external sources of funding, which assist in the prudent management of funding costs, interest rate risk, and anticipated funding needs or other considerations. Some sources of funding are accessible same-day while others require advance notice. Funds that are immediately accessible include Federal Fund counterparty lines, which are uncommitted lines of credit from other financial institutions, and the borrowing term is typically overnight. Availability of Federal Fund lines fluctuate based on market conditions and counterparty relationship strength. Unused overnight Fed Funds borrowings available for use totaled $345.0 million and $200.0 million, respectively, at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. In addition, we have borrowing capacity of $576.7 million with the FHLB Chicago at June 30, 2012, of which $276.3 million was available. The capacity is utilized by the bank for short-term funding needs, including overnight advances as well as long-term funding needs. Repurchase agreements (“Repos”) are also an immediate source of funding in which we pledge assets to a counterparty against which we can borrow with the agreement to repurchase at a specified date in the future. Repos can vary in term, from overnight to longer, but are regarded as short-term in nature. An additional source of overnight funding is the discount window at the FRB. We maintain access to the discount window by pledging loans as collateral to the FRB. Funding availability is primarily dictated by the amount of loans pledged, but also impacted by the margin applied to the loans by the FRB. The amount of loans pledged to the FRB can fluctuate due to the availability of loans eligible under the FRB’s criteria which include stipulations of documentation requirements, credit quality, payment status and other criteria. At June 30, 2012, we had $893.9 million in borrowing capacity through the FRB discount window’s primary credit program compared to $1.1 billion at December 31, 2011.

CAPITAL

Equity totaled $1.3 billion at June 30, 2012, increasing by $37.4 million from December 31, 2011 and was largely attributable to current period net income.

Capital Management

Under applicable regulatory capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank are subject to various capital requirements adopted and administered by the federal banking agencies. These guidelines specify minimum capital ratios calculated in accordance with the definitions in the guidelines, including the leverage ratio which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of adjusted average assets, and the Tier 1 capital ratio and the total capital ratio each as a percentage of risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet items that have been weighted according to broad risk categories. These minimum ratios are shown in the table below.

 

95


Table of Contents

To satisfy safety and soundness standards, banking institutions are expected to maintain capital levels in excess of the regulatory minimums depending on the risk inherent in the balance sheet, regulatory expectations and the changing risk profile of business activities and plans. Under our capital planning policy, we conduct periodic stress testing of our capital adequacy and target capital ratios at levels above regulatory minimums that we believe are appropriate based on various risk considerations, taking into account the current operating and economic environment and outlook, internal risk guidelines, and our strategic objectives as well as regulatory expectations. At the Bank, our current targeted minimum capital ratios include 8.25% Tier 1 leverage and 12.0% total risked-based capital. We are considering changes to our capital planning policy limits at the holding company and bank level in light of our improving credit quality metrics and the recently proposed regulatory capital changes. For more information about these proposals, see the following “Recent Developments – Capital Standards” section of this document.

At June 30, 2012, our capital includes $241.2 million of perpetual preferred stock that we sold to the U.S. Treasury in 2009 under the TARP CPP which qualifies as Tier 1 capital. We expect to redeem the TARP preferred in full although we do not have a definitive timetable for repayment. Under the terms of the program, any repayment of the TARP preferred is subject to approval by the Federal Reserve.

The following table presents information about our capital measures and the related regulatory capital guidelines.

As of June 30, 2012, all of our $244.8 million of outstanding junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (“Debentures”) held by trusts that issued trust preferred securities are included in Tier 1 capital. The Tier 1 qualifying amount is limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital under FRB regulations. Further, of the $120.0 million in outstanding principal balance of the Bank’s subordinated debt

facility at June 30, 2012, 60% of the balance qualified as Tier 2 capital. Effective in the third quarter 2010, Tier 2 capital qualification was reduced by 20% of the total balance outstanding and annually thereafter will be reduced by an additional 20%. For a full description of our Debentures and subordinated debt, refer to Notes 9 and 10 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Recent Developments – Capital Standards

On June 7, 2012, U.S. banking regulators released a notice of proposed rulemaking that would revise and replace the agencies’ current regulatory capital requirements to align with the Basel III international capital standards and to implement certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The proposal is generally expected to require U.S. banks to hold higher amounts of capital, especially common equity, against their risk-weighted assets.

The proposal changes the treatment of certain assets for purposes of calculating regulatory capital and revises the regulatory minimums, establishes a required “capital conservation buffer” and adopts a more conservative calculation of risk-weighted assets. The proposal would, among other things, phase-out trust preferred securities as a component of Tier 1 capital and would include unrealized gains and losses on debt and equity securities available for sale as a component of Tier 1 capital. Risk-weighted assets would be calculated using new and expanded risk-weighting categories. Among other categories, banking institutions would be required to assign higher risk-weightings to certain commercial real estate loans, past due or nonaccrual loans, certain residential mortgages, unfunded commitments of less than one year and portions of deferred tax assets exceeding certain limits. The proposal provides for the following heightened capital requirements (on a fully phased-in basis):

 

   

common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets of 7.0% (4.5% plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%);

 

   

Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8.5% (6% plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%);

 

   

total capital to total risk-weighted assets of 10.5% (8% plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%); and

 

   

Tier 1 capital to adjusted average total assets (leverage ratio) of 4%.

Under the proposal, if banking organizations fail to maintain capital ratios in excess of the requirements including the capital conservation buffer, they would be subject to limitations on payment of dividends, capital repurchases and payment of discretionary executive compensation. The proposal also changes the minimum Tier 1 capital thresholds for purposes of the existing prompt corrective action framework.

If adopted, we will be subject to and impacted by many of the provisions in the proposal. Our $244.8 million of trust preferred securities would be phased-out as a component of Tier 1 capital over a ten-year period commencing January 1, 2013 (although these securities would continue to qualify as Tier 2 capital). We estimate that our risk-weighted assets, based on the current composition of our balance sheet and unfunded commitments, would be higher, although we are unable to predict the full impact with certainty at this time pending further clarification of the proposals particularly with respect to the new category of “high volatility” commercial real estate loans. The proposal provides different phase-in periods for various provisions of the proposal over a number of years, with full phase-in of most aspects currently expected by 2019, and we do not yet know how and to what extent we may alter our business mix in response to the final rules. Until the proposals are finalized and the timing of implementation of the new rules is determined, some uncertainty will exist with respect to the ultimate impact of such rules on us and the banking industry generally.

Dividends

We declared dividends of $0.01 per common share during the second quarter 2012. The dividend payout ratio, which represents the percentage of common dividends declared to stockholders to basic earnings per share, was 5.26% for the second quarter 2012. We have no current plans to seek to raise dividends on our common stock.

For additional information regarding limitations and restrictions on our ability to pay dividends, refer to the “Supervision and Regulation” and “Risk Factors” sections of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This report contains both U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP based financial measures. These non-U.S. GAAP measures include net interest income, net interest margin, net revenue, operating profit, and efficiency ratio all on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry.

 

97


Table of Contents

We use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating various performance measures by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments assuming a 35% tax rate. Management believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it enhances comparability to net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources, and accordingly believes that providing this measure may be useful for peer comparison purposes.

In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, we also consider various measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible equity to tangible assets, tangible equity to risk-weighted assets, and tangible book value. These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators for both absolute and comparative purposes. All of these measures exclude the ending balances of goodwill and other intangibles while certain of these ratios exclude preferred capital components. Because U.S. GAAP does not include capital ratio measures, we believe there are no comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures to these ratios. We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are relevant because they provide information that is helpful in assessing the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows readers to compare certain aspects of our capitalization to other companies. However, because there are no standardized definitions for these ratios, our calculations may not be comparable with other companies, and the usefulness of these measures to investors may be limited.

Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under U.S. GAAP. As a result, we encourage readers to consider our Consolidated Financial Statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE

DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a continuing part of our asset/liability management strategy, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. We may manage interest rate risk by structuring the asset and liability characteristics of our balance sheet and/or by executing derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. We initiated the use of interest rate derivatives as part of our asset liability management strategy in July 2011 to hedge interest rate risk in our primarily floating-rate loan portfolio and, depending on market conditions, we may expand this program and enter into additional interest rate swaps.

Interest rate changes do not affect all categories of assets and liabilities equally or simultaneously. There are other factors that are difficult to measure and predict that would influence the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our Consolidated Statements of Income.

The majority of our interest-earning assets are floating rate instruments. Approximately 68% of the total loan portfolio is indexed to LIBOR, 20% of the total loan portfolio is indexed to the prime rate, and another 3% of the total loan portfolio otherwise adjusts with other reference interest rates. Of the $6.1 billion in loans maturing after one year with a floating interest rate, $1.3 billion are subject

to interest rate floors under the terms of the loan agreements, of which 90% are in effect at June 30, 2012 and are reflected in the interest sensitivity analysis below. To manage the interest rate risk of our balance sheet, we have the ability to use a combination of financial instruments, including medium-term and short-term financings, variable-rate debt instruments, fixed rate loans and securities and interest rate swaps.

We use a simulation model to estimate the potential impact of various interest rate changes on our income statement and our interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability portfolios. The starting point of the analysis is the current size and nature of these portfolios at the beginning of the measurement period as well as the then-current applicable pricing structures. During the twelve-month measurement period, the model will re-price assets and liabilities based on the contractual terms and market rates in effect at the beginning of the measurement period and assuming instantaneous parallel shifts in the applicable yield curves and instruments remain at that new interest rate through the end of the twelve-month measurement period. The model only analyzes changes in the portfolios based on assets and liabilities at the beginning of the measurement period and does not assume any changes from growth or business plans over the following twelve months.

The sensitivity analysis is based on numerous assumptions including: the nature and timing of interest rate levels including the shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows and others. While our assumptions are developed based upon current economic and local market conditions, we cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions including how client preferences or competitor influences might change. In addition, the simulation model assumes certain one-time instantaneous interest rate shifts that are consistent across all yield curves and do not continue to increase over the measurement period. Actual results may differ materially from these simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

As part of our routine simulation model maintenance, we updated assumptions within the model during the second quarter 2012. Modeling the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in market interest rates is highly dependent on numerous assumptions incorporated into the modeling process. These assumptions are periodically reviewed in the context of various internal and external factors including balance sheet changes, product offerings, product mix, external micro- and macro-economic factors, anticipated client behavior and anticipated Company and market pricing behavior. During the second quarter 2012, we conducted historical deposit re-pricing and deposit lifespan/retention analyses and adjusted our forward-looking assumptions related to client and market behavior. Based on our analyses and judgments, we modified the core deposit product repricing characteristics and retention periods, as well as average life estimates, used in our interest rate risk modeling which reflects higher interest rate sensitivity of our deposits.

The decrease in overall interest rate sensitivity from the prior year end, as reflected in the table below, is primarily due to this change in assumptions, as the interest rate sensitivity of our assets has increased somewhat since December 31, 2011. Excluding the impact of the modified assumptions, overall interest rate sensitivity increased during 2012 due to asset and liability compositional changes. Rate sensitive assets, particularly loans indexed to short term rates and Fed Funds, increased. The increase was funded by less rate sensitive liabilities, primarily brokered deposits. Based on the modeling, the Company remains in an asset sensitive position and would benefit from a rise in interest rates. We will continue to periodically review and refine, as appropriate, the assumptions used in our interest rate risk modeling.

The following table shows the estimated impact of an immediate change in interest rates as of June 30, 2012 based on our current simulation modeling assumptions and as of December 31, 2011, as previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

As an example, this table illustrates that if there had been an instantaneous parallel shift in all of the applicable yield curves of +100 basis points on June 30, 2012, net interest income would increase by $28.0 million or 7.4% over a twelve-month period.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

At the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of June 30, 2012, there were various legal proceedings pending against the Company and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these proceedings will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Before making a decision to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the information discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Annual Report”), regarding our business, financial condition or future results, together with the following discussion that supplements and supersedes in relevant part certain information contained in the Annual Report. You should also consider information included in this report, including the information set forth in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

We may be required to hold higher capital levels.

As discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Business – Supervision and Regulation” sections of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require U.S. banking regulators to consider changes to strengthen minimum capital requirements for financial institutions as part of the overall financial reforms currently in process of being implemented. On June 7, 2012, the Federal Reserve and other regulators released a notice of proposed rulemaking that would revise and replace the agencies’ current regulatory capital requirements and are intended to align U.S. capital requirements with Basel III international capital standards. Among the factors that would impact us over time under the proposal, our $244.8 million of trust preferred securities would be phased-out as a component of Tier 1 capital, and we estimate that, based on the current composition of our balance sheet and our unfunded commitments, our risk weighted assets would be higher due to more conservative standards for risk weighting assets in the proposal. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Capital” for more information.

The proposals are subject to an ongoing comment period and the final rules may be significantly different from the current proposals. In addition, the proposed time periods for phase-in of the new capital requirements and risk-weighted asset standards could change. Until the proposals are finalized and the timing of implementation of the new rules is determined, some uncertainty will exist with respect to the ultimate impact of such rules on us and the banking industry generally.

Depending on our growth and the risk profile and mix of the assets we generate over the phase-in period, we could be required to issue additional common or preferred stock to meet the new capital requirements. We may also seek to issue equity or debt securities to replace, redeem or repurchase our outstanding trust preferred securities or preferred stock in connection with our capital management plans. Under current federal regulation, redemptions of capital instruments are subject to regulatory approval. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise capital, when and if required, on favorable terms, and depending on the amount, type and cost of such capital, certain financial measurements such as earnings per share, book value per share and return on average common equity could suffer.
